Nottingham Forest have lost one of six games under Sean Dyche
Morgan Gibbs-White has scored four goals in that time
Recommended bet: Morgan Gibbs-White anytime scorer
Nostalgia takes a trip to Nottingham on Thursday when Forest host Malmo in a repeat of the 1979 European Cup final.
Trevor Francis' goal made the difference in Munich and the hosts are again expected to grab a victory against their Swedish visitors.
Forest sit 23rd in the Europa League standings, drawing 2-2 with Real Betis and losing 3-2 to Midtjylland under Ange Postecoglou before beating Porto and drawing 0-0 with Sturm Graz since Sean Dyche has taken charge.
Meanwhile, Malmo are 33rd in the league phase table, drawing 1-1 at home with Dinamo Zagreb amid defeats to Ludogorets, Viktoria Plzen and Panathinaikos.
With the regular Allsvenskan season over, Di Blae's players may lack focus and this looks like a chance for Forest to win with plenty to spare. The latest Nottingham Forest vs Malmo odds are available on LiveScore Bet.
Team news
Ola Aina (thigh), Douglas Luiz (thigh), Chris Wood (knee), Oleksandr Zinchenko (hip), Dilane Bakwa (unspecified) and Angus Gunn (knee) are sidelined for Forest.

Prediction
Evangelos Marinakis has said he will get those still around who played in that final in Munich to the City Ground if possible and the occasion has almost overshadowed the fact Forest come into this game on the back of a 3-0 win over Liverpool.
It was an impressive display from the Trick Trees, who have lost only one of their six games under Dyche and should have too much for a Malmo side who were last seen winning 2-1 at home to GAIS on November 9.
The pair have met since their famous night in Munich and it was another 1-0 win for Forest, Bryan Roy scoring the only goal a week after current Forest assistant Ian Woan had put his team ahead in Sweden, only to lose 2-1.
Forest should win with plenty to spare but with a challenging game against Brighton on Sunday, control could be the aim and a repeat of their 2-0 victory over Porto is priced at 22/5 with LiveScore Bet.
Another 1-0 like in 1979 and at the City Ground is 23/4 with LiveScore Bet and the Tricky Trees should win without conceding. However, with that outcome only 8/11 with LiveScore Bet, consider something else and Morgan Gibbs-White to score at anytime stands out.
Gibbs-White grabbed Forest's final goal at Anfield, backing up his strike against Leeds before the international break, one he had off after being omitted from the England squad.
The 25-year-old has already scored in the Europa League, netting the opener from the penalty spot in his team's victory over Porto.
Like his predecessors, Dyche clearly wants Gibbs-White centre stage and with four goals in his last six appearances, he can strike again on Thursday.
Back Morgan Gibbs-White anytime goalscorer at 7/4 with LiveScore Bet.
