Team News: Nottingham Forest v Malmö Nottingham Forest: John Victor, Abbott, Milenkovic, Murillo, Morato, Yates, Sangare, Dominguez, McAtee, Hudson-Odoi, The striker. Malmö: Ellborg, The defender, Jansson, Duric, Rosler, The midfielder, Johnsen, The midfielder, Bolin, Gudjohnsen, The striker. Official: The German referee (from Germany) Lineups: Rangers vs Braga The Glasgow side: Butland, Tavernier, Fernandez, Djiga, The full-back, Barron, Diomande, Raskin, Gassama, The forward, Chermiti. Braga: Hornicek, Gomez, Lagerbielke, The defender, The full-back, The midfielder, Joao Moutinho, Gorby, The attacker, Navarro, Ricardo Horta. Match official: Allard Lindhout (from Netherlands) Match Background The European clash and memories of 1979. The these sides have a special connection, also facing each other in Forest's previous European adventure in the mid-90s European competition, but it is the European Cup final decades past that entwines these two together, with the groundbreaking transfer Trevor Francis heading the only goal of a rather dull championship game to claim legendary status for the red half of Nottingham. "Brian Clough and Peter Taylor, grey-sweatered and anonymous amid all the festivities and cheers, stood for a moment on a bench quietly watching the mafficking," commented the writer. This represented an extraordinary accomplishment that it is unlikely to be replicated – from the lower league to continental competition in just three years." One should note to reflect upon Malmö, who became the pioneering and only Swedish club to advance to the ultimate game under English manager Bob Houghton. Tonight's game is a very different to that summit, closer perhaps to the Uefa Cup first-round tie between Forest and Malmö in the mid-nineties. Forest are full of confidence after defeating Liverpool convincingly at the famous ground on Saturday, while Malmö haven't played officially since 9 November following the completion of Allsvenskan. The general expectation is on the home team tonight. Plenty of other action on offer in this match tracking. Rangers have already been defeated by a Braga this season. Rangers are last place of the league rankings at the midpoint of the initial phase with precisely zero points. They desperately need a victory if they are to have any chance of achieving a comeback for a knockout position. We'll keep you up to date with all the evening matches and provide the most recent results from the concluded fixtures, including the Birmingham match and the Dutch-Scottish clash.
