Malen's double there triggered intense reactions in the opposition stands, with Swiss fans engaging with police. Scuffles broke out and objects thrown at both the police and onto the pitch, with Malen himself being hit on the head by a plastic cup. Lineups: Forest vs Malmö Nottingham Forest: The goalkeeper, Abbott, Milenkovic, Murillo, Morato, Yates, The defensive midfielder, Dominguez, McAtee, Hudson-Odoi, Kalimuendo. Malmö: The goalkeeper, The defender, Jansson, The defender, Rosler, Haksabanovic, Johnsen, Skogmar, Bolin, Gudjohnsen, Busanello. Match official: Harm Osmers (from Germany) Starting Players The Light Blues: The goalkeeper, Tavernier, The center-back, Djiga, The full-back, Barron, Diomande, Raskin, The attacker, The forward, Chermiti. Braga: The goalkeeper, Gomez, The center-back, The defender, Arrey-Mbi, Zalazar, Moutinho, Gorby, The attacker, Navarro, Horta. Official: Allard Lindhout (from Netherlands) Preamble The European clash and past encounters. The both teams have a historical link, also meeting in Forest's last European campaign in the UEFA Cup of 1995-96, but it is the continental championship 46 years ago that connects these teams, with Britain's first £1m player Francis scoring the winner of a pretty miserable final to clinch eternal glory for the red half of Nottingham. "Forest's famous bosses, grey-sweatered and anonymous amid all the excitement and joy, stood for a moment on a bench serenely viewing the mafficking," wrote the match reporter. This represented an extraordinary accomplishment that it is difficult to imagine happening again – from second tier to European stage in a short period." One should note to pause a little on Malmö, who became the first, and to date the last Swedish club to make the championship match under British coach Houghton. This match is a very different to that summit, closer perhaps to the Uefa Cup first-round tie between Forest and Malmö in the mid-nineties. Forest are full of confidence after beating Liverpool 3-0 at the famous ground on Saturday, while Malmö haven't played officially since 9 November following the completion of Allsvenskan. The general expectation is on the home team tonight. Plenty of other action on offer in this clockwatch. The Scottish side have already been beaten by a Braga this season. Rangers are at the foot of the 36-team Europa League standings at the middle of the initial phase with precisely zero points. They desperately need a victory if they are to have any opportunity for a comeback for a qualification place. We'll keep you up to date with all the evening matches and provide the latest scores from the previous games, including Villa vs Young Boys and Feyenoord v Celtic.
