Expert Betting Tips

Despite suffering a loss in their last game, Malmo are the best team in the league, and they will always have my back in a game like this. Sirius have won 2 of their last seven games. However, Sirius scored 12 goals in the previous four games, so they are expected to find the back of the net in this clash.
