Match Preview:
Francesco Farioli’s men, who had won their opening two games of the Europa campaign, failed to record victory in the next two rounds, losing to Nottingham Forest before settling for a draw at Utrecht.
However, the next continental outing saw the Portuguese side put three unreplied goals past their French visitors, courtesy of a first-half brace from Gabri Veiga before Samu Omorodion sealed the victory from the spot.
Back-to-back games at Dragao present an opportunity for the Blue and White to strengthen their grip in the top eight while also extending an impressive home record in the Europa group stage/league phase; Porto have won eight of their last 12 such outings (D3, L1).

Malmo, on the other hand, enter this encounter with fresher legs; their most recent outing came two weeks ago in a 3-0 defeat against Forest at the City Ground in the Europa League.
First-half goals from Ryan Yates and Arnaud Kalimuendo, followed by a Nikola Milenkovic effort after the interval, saw the Swedish outfit suffer back-to-back defeats in the competition for the second time, having lost to Panathinaikos on matchday four.
Malmo had lost their opening two games of the league phase campaign to Ludogorets and Vitoria Plzen, with a goalless draw against Dinamo Zagreb being the only game from which they have managed to take something.

Match Prediction: Porto 3-0 Malmo
Porto boast a very strong defensive record at home, having kept seven clean sheets in 10 games this season, making it a daunting task for Malmo’s blunt attack.
The visitors have scored just twice in their five league phase matches, while conceding 10 at the other end, which suggests they will struggle against the hosts’ formidable frontline, so a comfortable victory for the Dragons is expected.
