Referee: The Dutch referee (Netherlands) Historical Context Nottingham Forest v Malmö and memories of 1979. The two clubs have a unique relationship, also meeting in Forest's previous European adventure in the UEFA Cup of 1995-96, but it is the continental championship from 1979 that connects these teams, with the record-breaking signing the English forward scoring the winner of a largely forgettable match to claim legendary status for the red half of Nottingham. "Forest's famous bosses, grey-sweatered and anonymous amid all the festivities and cheers, stood for a moment on a bench calmly observing the mafficking," wrote the match reporter. This represented an extraordinary accomplishment that it is hard to see being repeated – from Second Division to continental competition in a short period." Worth mentioning to reflect upon Malmö, who became the initial and final Nordic team to reach the final under manager Houghton. This match is a far cry from that pinnacle, closer perhaps to the earlier European encounter between Forest and Malmö in the mid-nineties. Forest are full of confidence after defeating Liverpool convincingly at Liverpool's home on Saturday, while Malmö have been inactive since 9 November following the conclusion of their domestic campaign. The general expectation is on the Forest tonight. Additional games on offer in this match tracking. The Glasgow club have already been defeated by a European rival this season. Rangers are last place of the 36-team Europa League standings at the middle of the initial phase with exactly zero. They desperately need a victory if they are to have any opportunity for a comeback for a knockout position. Updates will continue with all the evening matches and provide the latest scores from the earlier matches, including Aston Villa v Young Boys and Rotterdam vs Glasgow.
