The Arsenalistas: Hornicek, The defender, Lagerbielke, The defender, The full-back, The midfielder, Moutinho, The midfielder, The attacker, Navarro, The striker. Referee: The Dutch referee (from Netherlands) Preamble Forest vs Malmö and past encounters. The two clubs have a unique relationship, also facing each other in Forest's last European campaign in the UEFA Cup of 1995-96, but it is the European Cup final decades past that entwines these two together, with the record-breaking signing the English forward heading the only goal of a largely forgettable match to secure historic victory for the Forest supporters. "Brian Clough and Peter Taylor, grey-sweatered and anonymous amid all the excitement and joy, stood for a moment on a bench calmly observing the celebrations," commented the writer. This represented an remarkable feat that it is unlikely to be replicated – from second tier to continental competition in just three years." Worth mentioning to consider Malmö, who became the pioneering and only Scandinavian side to advance to the ultimate game under British coach Houghton. The current fixture is a far cry from that peak, closer perhaps to the previous continental meeting between Forest and Malmö in 1995-96. Forest are riding high after thrashing Liverpool at Liverpool's home on Saturday, while Malmö haven't played officially since 9 November following the completion of Allsvenskan. The general expectation is on the English side tonight. Additional games on offer in this clockwatch. The Scottish side have already been lost to a Portuguese opponent this season. Rangers are last place of the 36-team Europa League standings at the half-way stage of the group stage with no points whatsoever. They badly want a victory if they are to have any chance of achieving a comeback for a playoff spot. We'll keep you up to date with all the evening matches and provide the most recent results from the previous games, including Aston Villa v Young Boys and Rotterdam vs Glasgow.
