He is gone. Completely gone. It was expected when we saw the injury the other day. The question is whether he can play before the international break, says coach Jacob Nestrup.

Nestrup regrets that the French-Tunisian cannot play, but says at Monday's press conference that he has alternatives that can solve the task on the left wing.

I think Robert (Silva) played a good first half last time and we have other alternatives on the left wing. Magnus Mattsson can also play on the inner left wing. But of course Achouri is a really skilled player who in recent months has returned to the level he had during his first season with us.

Last week, the Öresund meeting ended 0–0. On Tuesday, the teams meet in Copenhagen. The winner of the double meeting goes to playoff against Swiss Basel.
