FC Midtjylland team news
Midtjylland continue to be without midfielder Kristoffer Olsson, who has been ruled out due to an injury.
Paulinho, Cho Gue-sung, and Marrony are all sidelined with knee injuries, while Victor Bak and Christian Sørensen remain doubtful due to injury concerns.
After missing out on qualifying for European competition altogether last season, Midtjylland are vying to progress to the Champions League proper for just the second time in their history after competing in the 2020-21 group stage.
Last season's Danish SuperLiga champions cruised to a 4-0 aggregate win over UE Santa Coloma in the Champions League second qualifying round at the end of last month, before edging past Ferencvaros over two legs last week.
Goals from Adam Buksa and Franculino Dju sealed a 2-0 first-leg win on home soil, before Oliver Sorensen cancelled out Ibrahim Cisse's early opener to rescue a 1-1 second-leg draw in Hungary last Tuesday and advance 3-1 on aggregate.
Thomas Thomasberg's side have since extended their impressive unbeaten run across all competitions to nine matches, winning five of their last six including a 2-1 away victory over Lyngby in the Danish Superliga.
Sitting third in the top flight after five matches and just one point behind leaders Silkeborg, Midtjylland will now shift their attention back to the Champions League, aiming to win their fifth successive home game in all competitions as they endeavour to take control of their playoff tie with Slovan Bratislava.
