Hapoel Be'er Sheva will resume play after the international break on Saturday evening, facing Ironi Tiberias. Coach Ran Kozuch has a full squad available, including players Itai Rotman and Lucas Ventura, who are both expected to start. The main uncertainty revolves around midfielder Eliel Peretz, who experienced a heavy workload with the national team and might begin the match on the bench. Conversely, Guy Mzrahi is anticipated to be in the starting lineup. Kozuch has not yet finalized the starting eleven and plans to use the final training session to make his decisions.
The team is motivated by the memory of a 3-0 loss to Tiberias last season, with club sources stating, "We have no privilege to lose points. We remember the defeat against Tiberias last season at this stadium; this time we must take three points."
Hapoel Be'er Sheva, who secured a 1-0 home victory against Hapoel Kiryat Shmona before the break, faces a demanding week. On Thursday, they are scheduled to play in the Europa League against AZ Alkmaar, the current leader of the Dutch league.
