Omri Altman returns from suspension for Hapoel Tel Aviv.
Yanni Lalindell is still not in the squad due to registration issues.
Hapoel Tel Aviv faces Hapoel Ramat Gan after a 3-0 win.
Coach Barda may keep the same starting lineup.
The main lineup decision is between two strikers.

Hapoel Tel Aviv is preparing for their upcoming match against Hapoel Ramat Gan, aiming to maintain their strong start to the 2026/27 season. The team is coming off a significant 3-0 victory over Beitar Jerusalem and is looking ahead to the derby against Maccabi Tel Aviv.

The key personnel news for Hapoel Tel Aviv involves the return of Omri Altman, who will be back from suspension. However, Yanni Lalindell remains unavailable and is not included in the squad. Hapoel Tel Aviv cannot register Lalindell until they release another foreign player, Shanda Silva. Even then, Lalindell is not yet match-fit, and the club anticipates he will only be registered in time for the derby match. Silva will be the eighth foreign player not dressed for the upcoming game.

Following their impressive performance against Beitar Jerusalem, coach Barda is expected to keep the starting lineup largely unchanged. The primary decision point is in the forward position, with a choice between Daniel Dapa and Emmanuel Boateng, who scored in the previous game. The projected starting lineup includes Assaf Tzur, Marcus Coco, Fernand Mayembo, Chico, Doron Leidner, Falcao, Adrian Creve, Roei Alkoquin, Stav Turi'el, Daniel Dapa (or Emmanuel Boateng), and Douglas Owusu.
