Match official: Lindhout (Netherlands) Match Background Forest vs Malmö and historical connections. The both teams have a special connection, also facing each other in Forest's previous European adventure in the 1995-96 Uefa Cup, but it is the premier competition final from 1979 that links these clubs, with the groundbreaking transfer Trevor Francis heading the only goal of a pretty miserable final to claim legendary status for the the English club. "Forest's famous bosses, grey-sweatered and anonymous amid all the colour and celebration, stood for a moment on a bench calmly observing the revelry," noted the journalist. This represented an remarkable feat that it is unlikely to be replicated – from Second Division to continental competition in a short period." One should note to consider Malmö, who became the pioneering and only Scandinavian side to reach the final under manager Houghton. Tonight's game is a very different to that peak, closer perhaps to the earlier European encounter between Forest and Malmö in 1995-96. Forest are full of confidence after beating Liverpool 3-0 at the famous ground on Saturday, while Malmö haven't kicked a competitive ball since early November following the conclusion of their domestic campaign. The general expectation is on the English side tonight. Plenty of other action on offer in this clockwatch. The Scottish side have already been lost to a Braga this season. Rangers are at the foot of the competition table at the midpoint of the group stage with exactly zero. They urgently require a victory if they are to have any opportunity for a comeback for a playoff spot. Coverage will persist with all nine of the 8pm kick-offs and provide the current standings from the previous games, including Aston Villa v Young Boys and Feyenoord v Celtic.
