THE PREDICTION
Malmo have been well out of their depth in Group H but they put in their best performance of the campaign on Matchday 4 when they restricted reigning European champions Chelsea to just a single goal. They are still yet to find the net in the Champions League this season but if they are going to manage that, it will surely be this fixture against a Zenit side who conceded four to Juventus last time out. The Russian outfit should still be favoured though as they have the edge in quality all over the pitch, so backing the away win looks to be the way to go.
