Nottingham Forest host Malmo FF at the City Ground on Thursday in their UEFA Europa League 2025-26 Group Stage Matchday 5 fixture. Forest arrive on a high after a stunning 3-0 victory over Liverpool in the Premier League, which SoftFootball described as a season-defining win that revitalised the squad's morale and confidence under Sean Dyche.
In Europe, Forest have collected four points in their last two games, including a hard-fought 0-0 draw at Sturm Graz and a 2-0 win over Porto , putting them in a strong position to advance.
Malmo FF, by contrast, remain winless in the Europa League, with one draw and three defeats. The Swedish side's European away form has been poor this season, conceding multiple goals and failing to keep a clean sheet in their last five matches.
