Referee: Lindhout (Netherlands) Preamble Nottingham Forest v Malmö and past encounters. The both teams have a unique relationship, also meeting in Forest's last European campaign in the mid-90s European competition, but it is the European Cup final from 1979 that links these clubs, with the record-breaking signing Trevor Francis netting the decisive goal of a largely forgettable match to clinch eternal glory for the Forest supporters. "Brian Clough and Peter Taylor, unassuming and low-key amid all the excitement and joy, stood for a moment on a bench calmly observing the mafficking," wrote the match reporter. Their achievement was an outstanding achievement that it is unlikely to be replicated – from the lower league to continental competition in just three years." One should note to pause a little on Malmö, who became the initial and final Nordic team to make the championship match under manager Houghton. The current fixture is a distant from that peak, closer perhaps to the Uefa Cup first-round tie between Forest and Malmö in that era. Forest are absolutely buzzing after defeating Liverpool convincingly at the famous ground on Saturday, while Malmö haven't played officially since early November following the completion of Allsvenskan. The general expectation is on the English side tonight. Plenty of other action on offer in this clockwatch. Rangers have already been defeated by a European rival this season. Rangers are at the foot of the 36-team Europa League standings at the midpoint of the league phase with exactly zero. They badly want a victory if they are to have any opportunity for a late surge for a qualification place. We'll keep you up to date with all the evening matches and provide the most recent results from the concluded fixtures, including the Birmingham match and the Dutch-Scottish clash.
