Hapoel Haifa, currently sixth in the league with nine points, is set to host Hapoel Ramat Gan on Saturday at 7:00 PM, aiming for their second consecutive league victory. The team achieved a dramatic 2-1 win over Maccabi Petah Tikva in added time during their last match.
Coach Haim Silvas is expected to make two changes to the starting lineup. In the attack, Yoad Gonen, returning from suspension, is favored over Chikana Diaquita. Additionally, Dor Malul might start at right-back, replacing Noam Cohen. William Agada, who sustained an injury before the international break, has not yet returned to full training and will be sidelined for another two weeks.
The club is maintaining focus ahead of the match against Ramat Gan, cautioning against complacency despite their strong start to the season. "Ramat Gan is a difficult pitfall, our test is in these types of games, we will need to come in humbly and stick to our principles, it will not be easy," a club representative stated.
Coach Silvas expressed his team's determination: "We want to continue our form with our results, we will come to the game very determined to bring three points. In this league, every game is difficult and Ramat Gan is a dangerous team. But we will come with our elements and desires, and try to impose our style and achieve the result, of course."
The projected lineup includes Yoav Jerafi in goal; Dor Malul, Dario Župarić, Ivan Kritzak, and Ariel Mendy in defense; Naor Sebbag, Chik Keita, and Shay Elias in midfield; and Yoad Gonen, Liran Rotman, and Alon Turgeman in attack.
