Maccabi Tel Aviv expressed significant disappointment following a 0-0 draw against Bnei Sakhnin on Saturday, which ended their five-game winning streak in the league. The team felt they missed opportunities to secure a victory, with one official stating, "We shouldn't have stumbled here, especially in this kind of game." The draw leaves Maccabi Tel Aviv with a three-point lead over second-place Hapoel Tel Aviv, with Maccabi Haifa having a chance to narrow the gap to one point if they win their upcoming match.
Adding to the club's concerns is an injury sustained by winger Osher Davida, who limped off the field clutching his hamstring during the match. There is fear that Davida, who had a strong start to the season, may have a hamstring tear. He is scheduled for medical tests and is currently doubtful for the next game against Beitar Jerusalem.
On a more positive note, Hélio Varela, who has been gradually returning to play after an injury, is expected to start in the upcoming match. Shagiv Ezekiel also had a clear scoring chance but missed, though the team is pleased he appears to have put his own injury behind him, at least temporarily.
