Malmo lost to Italy's Juventus FC in their last home match in the Champions League and the loss ended their eight-match unbeaten run at the Eleda Stadion.
 
"We take the positives: we're in the Champions League," Martin Olsson, Malmo defender, said following their defeat to Chelsea.
 
"And we have a lot of players who have never played at this level and against these teams, So it's a good experience for the boys. We've got to learn from it.
 
"It's always great to play in these sorts of stadiums in front of these fans. We've got our fans backing us and hopefully we'll have a better game and give them a harder game. We're looking forward to it."

Meanwhile, Chelsea will be looking to complete a double when they take on a revenge-seeking Malmo side in Sweden. 
 
The win over Malmo saw the English giants return to winning ways in this competition with Juventus having ended their four-match unbeaten run. 
 
The defeat to Juventus also ended Chelsea's seven-match unbeaten run on the road in the Champions League having registered one draw and six wins as the visitors. 
 
Malmo will play host to Chelsea for the first time in the Champions League.
