Lineups: Forest vs Malmö Forest: John Victor, Abbott, Milenkovic, Murillo, Morato, Yates, Sangare, Dominguez, The attacker, Hudson-Odoi, Kalimuendo. The Swedish side: Ellborg, Larsen, Jansson, Duric, Rosler, Haksabanovic, Johnsen, Skogmar, The attacker, Gudjohnsen, The striker.

Braga: The goalkeeper, Gomez, Lagerbielke, Niakate, The full-back, The midfielder, The experienced midfielder, Gorby, The attacker, Navarro, The striker. Official: The Dutch referee (Holland) Historical Context Forest vs Malmö and memories of 1979. The both teams have a historical link, also facing each other in Forest's most recent continental tour in the 1995-96 Uefa Cup, but it is the continental championship 46 years ago that entwines these two together, with the groundbreaking transfer Francis heading the only goal of a largely forgettable match to claim legendary status for the red half of Nottingham. "Forest's famous bosses, grey-sweatered and anonymous amid all the festivities and cheers, stood for a moment on a bench quietly watching the revelry," noted the journalist. This represented an outstanding achievement that it is difficult to imagine happening again – from the lower league to European football in just three years." Worth mentioning to reflect upon Malmö, who became the first, and to date the last Nordic team to make the championship match under English manager Bob Houghton. Tonight's game is a very different to that summit, closer perhaps to the earlier European encounter between Forest and Malmö in that era. Forest are absolutely buzzing after thrashing Liverpool at the famous ground on Saturday, while Malmö haven't played officially since early November following the end of the Swedish league season. The general expectation is on the Forest tonight. Additional games on offer in this live coverage. The Scottish side have already been lost to a Braga this season. Rangers are last place of the 36-team Europa League standings at the midpoint of the league phase with exactly zero. They urgently require a victory if they are to have any chance of achieving a late surge for a knockout position. Coverage will persist with all the late games and provide the current standings from the previous games, including Aston Villa v Young Boys and Feyenoord v Celtic.
