Referee: The Dutch referee (from Netherlands) Preamble Nottingham Forest v Malmö and historical connections. The two clubs have a unique relationship, also meeting in Forest's most recent continental tour in the UEFA Cup of 1995-96, but it is the premier competition final from 1979 that links these clubs, with Britain's first £1m player the English forward heading the only goal of a largely forgettable match to clinch eternal glory 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 revelry," noted the journalist. This represented an extraordinary accomplishment that it is hard to see being repeated – from second tier to European stage in a short period." One should note to pause a little on Malmö, who became the initial and final Swedish club to advance to the ultimate game under manager Houghton. This match is a distant from that peak, closer perhaps to the Uefa Cup first-round tie between Forest and Malmö in that era. Forest are full of confidence after defeating Liverpool convincingly at Liverpool's home on Saturday, while Malmö haven't played officially since last month following the conclusion of their domestic campaign. The smart money is on the Forest tonight. Numerous other matches on offer in this match tracking. The Scottish side have already been lost to a Portuguese opponent this season. Rangers are at the foot of the 36-team Europa League standings at the midpoint of the league phase with exactly zero. They urgently require a victory if they are to have any chance of achieving a late surge for a qualification place. Updates will continue with all the evening matches and provide the most recent results from the earlier matches, including the Birmingham match and Rotterdam vs Glasgow.
