Maccabi Petah Tikva Defender Ilozi Yao Out Against Tiberias
Maccabi Petah Tikva defender Ilozi Yao will miss Saturday's match against Ironi Tiberias due to a lack of match fitness, despite signing with the club this week. Yao is not expected to be in the squad for the upcoming game.
Maccabi Petah Tikva, currently tied with Maccabi Tel Aviv as the only teams with a perfect record of two wins from two games, aims to continue their strong start to the season. Coach Ziv Arie is expected to maintain the same starting lineup that secured their previous victories, adhering to the principle of not changing a winning team.
While Eitan Tibi and Bashar Alhaj are fit and available for selection, they are not anticipated to start. Additionally, Adar Ratner remains sidelined due to injury. The projected starting lineup for Maccabi Petah Tikva includes Maor Ehrlich in goal, a defense of Guy Dezente, Pavlos Correa, Or Dadia, and Aviv Salem, a midfield of Idan Cohen, Ibrahima Sona, and Liran Hazan, and an attacking trio of Samuel Owusu, Kyle Spence, and Marko Rakonjac.
The match is scheduled for Saturday at 19:45 and will be broadcast live on 5MAX.
