Union Berlin will be satisfied by their performances in recent games. They have managed four wins and two defeats in their last six fixtures. They have been absolutely splendid in the Bundesliga, sitting at the top of the table after nine matchdays. Union Berlin would have preferred a better start in the Europa League but they will be aware that all is not lost yet with three matchdays still to go.
Malmo, on the other hand, will be greatly disappointed by their recent form. They have earned just a couple of victories along with two draws and two losses in their last six matches. The Swedish side just haven’t been able to set a trail in the Europa League and now it looks like almost a mission impossible for them to qualify for the knockout stages.
