Copenhagen vs Malmo match prediction 12 August 2025

This season has been very difficult for Malmö. The Sky Blue are only in fifth place in the domestic league and have already lost any realistic chance of defending their title, while in the 3rd round of Champions League qualification they settled for only a draw at home against Copenhagen. The Danes play much stronger on their home field, and therefore the Lions are the clear favourites in the return match. As a result, we can bet on the victory of Copenhagen with a total over 1.5 goals.

The confrontation between Copenhagen and Malmo always turns out to be stingy on goals. In total, the rivals have scored only 4 goals (1.00 average per game) in the four previous head-to-head meetings. And now, given the importance of the match, we are unlikely to see a goal extravaganza.

Our main prediction: is W1 for a coefficient of 1.68 in the 1xbet bookmaker.

Our betting tip on the match: is Correct Score 2:0 for a coefficient 7.00 in the bet365 bookmaker.
