- Midfielder Antonio Spohr is in contention to start against Hapoel Petah Tikva.

- Bnei Sakhnin seeks a win to improve their position in the league standings.
Bnei Sakhnin is preparing to face Hapoel Petah Tikva in their upcoming league match, aiming to build on their recent encouraging defensive performance and secure a crucial three points. Following a respectable draw against Maccabi Tel Aviv, the club sees this game as a significant opportunity to achieve their second win of the season and move away from the relegation zone.
Coach Yossi Abuksis is reportedly considering a substantial tactical change for the game. He has been practicing a four-man defensive line, intending to add more attacking power and ball possession in the forward areas, a departure from the more defensive setup used against Maccabi Tel Aviv. Midfielder Antonio Spohr, who did not play in the last match, is a candidate to start and inject creativity into the offense.
However, Abuksis faces challenges with player availability. Captain Maroun Gantos is feeling unwell and missed training, making his participation in the match uncertain. Additionally, Amit Karadi is still recovering from an injury and will not be included in the squad.
The likely starting lineup includes Raul Balbirao in goal, with Leroy Owusu, Uri Dahan, Iyad Abu Abid (or Gantos if fit), and Sana Gomes in defense. The midfield is expected to feature Ahmed Taha, Modestus Vurubiv, and Antonio Spohr, while Mathew Kodjo, Ahmed Salman, and Itamar Shviro are set to lead the attack.
