Referee: Lindhout (Netherlands) Match Background The European clash and memories of 1979. The these sides have a unique relationship, also facing each other in Forest's last European campaign in the 1995-96 Uefa Cup, but it is the premier competition final from 1979 that entwines these two together, with Britain's first £1m player Francis heading the only goal of a rather dull championship game to secure historic victory 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 serenely viewing the celebrations," noted the journalist. Theirs has been an extraordinary accomplishment that it is unlikely to be replicated – from the lower league to European football in three seasons." Worth mentioning to pause a little on Malmö, who became the pioneering and only Scandinavian side to reach the final under manager Houghton. The current fixture is a far cry from that pinnacle, closer perhaps to the Uefa Cup first-round tie between Forest and Malmö in 1995-96. Forest are full of confidence after thrashing Liverpool at Liverpool's home on Saturday, while Malmö have been inactive since early November following the conclusion of their domestic campaign. The smart money is on the home team tonight. Additional games on offer in this live coverage. The Scottish side have already been beaten by a Braga this season. Rangers are at the foot of the league rankings at the half-way stage of the group stage with exactly zero. They urgently require a victory if they are to have any hope of making a late surge for a qualification place. Coverage will persist with all the late games and provide the most recent results from the earlier matches, including the Birmingham match and Rotterdam vs Glasgow.
