Maccabi Tel Aviv player Osher Davida is highly questionable for the team's upcoming match against Beitar Jerusalem on Monday at Teddy Stadium. Davida sustained a leg injury during Maccabi Tel Aviv's game last Saturday against Bnei Sakhnin at Bloomfield Stadium and is experiencing pain. The club is still assessing his condition, as the team had a day off on Sunday. Davida is not expected to participate in Monday's training session, forcing coach Kenny Miller to consider alternative players for his position.
Miller will welcome back Helio Varela to the starting lineup. This could allow Sagiv Yehezkel, who started on the left wing in place of Varela against Bnei Sakhnin, to shift to the right wing. Another option for the right wing, in Davida's potential absence, is Hisham La'ayos.
Maccabi Tel Aviv has struggled against Beitar Jerusalem in the past two seasons, with notable losses at both Teddy Stadium and Bloomfield Stadium, including a 6-0 defeat last season under coach Zarko Lazetic. The team observed Beitar Jerusalem's comfortable victory over Hapoel Ramat Gan this week, recognizing the difficult challenge ahead. Meanwhile, Maccabi Tel Aviv remains at the top of the league table, with Maccabi Haifa close behind in strong form.
