Alkmaar winger Ayub Oufkir, 20, has provocatively stated he does not know Hapoel Be'er Sheva but expects his team to "completely dismantle" them in their upcoming Europa League match. Oufkir, who has been getting more playing time with the senior team after progressing from the youth squad, played the full 90 minutes in Alkmaar's recent 2-0 league loss to Feyenoord. Alkmaar is currently in inconsistent form, with only one win in their last four games. Despite this, Oufkir's comments suggest a high level of confidence, perhaps even overconfidence, within the Dutch team. Hapoel Be'er Sheva, the Israeli champions, will be playing without their fans due to a police decision barring Israeli supporters from the stadium. They are hoping to replicate their previous performance, a 0-0 draw against Dinamo Zagreb, and surprise their opponents. Former Maccabi Tel Aviv player, identified in the article only as "Patachi," is reportedly not expected to start for Alkmaar.
