Hapoel Be'er Sheva Midfielder Niv Yehoshua Cleared for Kiryat Shmona Match

Niv Yehoshua, a midfielder for Hapoel Be'er Sheva, has been declared fit to play in the team's upcoming match against Ironi Kiryat Shmona. Yehoshua had a concerning fall during the team's 0-0 draw against Dinamo Zagreb in the Europa League earlier this week, but subsequent tests on Thursday revealed no serious issues. The team will also see the return of Eliel Peretz, who has completed a suspension, and Gibril Diop to the starting lineup as part of a refresh of the eleven players. However, injured players Lucas Ventura and Itay Rotman will continue to be absent.

Meanwhile, Adrian Grbic is expected to start for the reigning champions, alongside Amir Ganach and Joao Victor. Ofir Davidzada may feature at left-back. The club stated their objective is to enter the upcoming break with three points, allowing some players to rest afterward. Grbic has also received a call-up to the Peruvian national team for the upcoming international window.

The projected starting lineup includes Ofir Marciano in goal, with Yoni Stoyanov, Gibril Diop, Miguel Vítor, and Ofir Davidzada in defense. The midfield will consist of Niv Yehoshua, Hamodi Knaan, and Eliel Peretz, while the attack will be led by Joao Victor, Amir Ganach, and Adrian Grbic.
