After securing promotion to the top flight, Kalmar have shown encouraging signs of progress, with their home form proving particularly impressive as they have remained unbeaten in five of their six league matches at Guldfageln Arena.
Toni Koskela's side have scored 14 league goals this season, although improving their output in the final third remains an area for development.
Both teams have scored in six of Malmo's last eight matches.
At the back, however, they have been solid, conceding 17 goals to boast the fifth-best defensive record in the division.
Kalmar have struggled in recent meetings with Malmo, failing to win any of their last three encounters while also conceding in each of those matches.
Malmo endured a disappointing 2025 campaign, finishing sixth in the Allsvenskan standings with 49 points from 30 matches, a sizeable 26 points behind champions Mjallby.
