IHM Discussion
Malmö’s recent record points to steady progress. The club have improved both their league position and points total in each of the past four seasons, with finishing positions of 14th, 12th, 10th and 8th.
Persson said Malmö have been stuck in the quarter-finals for a couple of years and hopes they can go further this season. The next challenge is therefore to turn regular-season improvement into a deeper playoff run.
Why It Matters
A run beyond the quarter-finals would give Malmö a clear next marker after four successive seasons of improvement. Their positions of 14th, 12th, 10th and 8th show a sustained upward trend; progressing further in the playoffs would test whether that progress can carry into the decisive stage of the season.
