Malmo vs Panathinaikos Prediction and Betting Tips | November 6th 2025

Malmo will host Panathinaikos at the Eleda Stadium on Thursday in the fourth round of the 2025-26 UEFA Europa League's league phase. The home side have endured an overall difficult campaign, sitting 20 points off the top in the Swedish Allsvenskan and are yet to pick up a win on the continental stage this term.

They kicked off their Europa League campaign with a 2-1 defeat to Ludogorets before suffering a comprehensive 3-0 loss to Viktoria Plzen in game two. They then played out a 1-1 draw with Dinamo Zagreb last time out in the tournament and had looked set to secure maximum points following Oscar Lewicki's first-half opener before their opponents leveled the scores in the 96th minute.

Panathinaikos, on the other hand, picked up a brilliant 4-1 victory away at Young Boys in the opening round but have failed to earn any points in the tournament since then. They lost 3-1 to Feyenoord in their last continental outing, taking the lead via a first-half strike from Karol Swiderski before their opponents turned the game on its head in the second.

Malmo vs Panathinaikos Head-to-Head and Key Numbers

Malmo vs Panathinaikos Prediction

Di Blåe are on a three-game winless streak and have won just one of their last six. Despite their home advantage, they remain underdogs ahead of the midweek clash due to their poor home form, which has seen them manage just one win in seven.

Trifýlli have had mixed results in recent games with three wins and three losses in their last seven. However, they have a slightly stronger squad ahead of Thursday's game and should avoid defeat here.

Prediction: Malmo 1-1 Panathinaikos
