Official: Allard Lindhout (Netherlands) Match Background Nottingham Forest v Malmö and past encounters. The two clubs have a historical link, also meeting in Forest's most recent continental tour in the 1995-96 Uefa Cup, but it is the European Cup final 46 years ago that links these clubs, with Britain's first £1m player the English forward scoring the winner of a largely forgettable match to clinch eternal glory for the red half of Nottingham. "The legendary management duo, grey-sweatered and anonymous amid all the colour and celebration, stood for a moment on a bench quietly watching the celebrations," wrote the match reporter. Their achievement was an extraordinary accomplishment that it is hard to see being repeated – from the lower league to European stage in a short period." One should note to consider Malmö, who became the initial and final Swedish club to make the championship match under manager Houghton. Tonight's game is a very different to that summit, closer perhaps to the earlier European encounter between Forest and Malmö in the mid-nineties. Forest are riding high after beating Liverpool 3-0 at the famous ground on Saturday, while Malmö haven't kicked a competitive ball since 9 November following the conclusion of their domestic campaign. The popular prediction is on the home team tonight. Additional games on offer in this clockwatch. The Scottish side have already been defeated by a Portuguese opponent this season. Rangers are rock bottom of the 36-team Europa League standings at the half-way stage of the group stage with precisely zero points. They desperately need a victory if they are to have any hope of making a comeback for a qualification place. We'll keep you up to date with all nine of the 8pm kick-offs and provide the most recent results from the earlier matches, including Villa vs Young Boys and the Dutch-Scottish clash.
