Following a difficult loss in Europe, Hapoel Be'er Sheva is set to make significant changes to its starting lineup for their upcoming Israeli Premier League match against Hapoel Jerusalem. Coach Ran Kozuch is expected to rest several key players who have played consistently in both league and European competitions.
Among the expected changes, defender Guy Mizrahi, who has started every game this season, is likely to be rested, with Yoni Stoyanov taking his place at right-back. Ofir Davidzada will play at left-back, replacing Pedro Amador. In central defense, Itay Rotman and Miguel Vítor are slated to start, filling in for the injured Djibril Diop and Idan Nahmias. Niv Yehoshua and Hamudi Kanaan are also expected to come into the midfield, replacing Lucas Ventura and Amankwaa Forson, alongside Eliel Peretz.
The forward line is also anticipated to see a complete overhaul. Amir Ganach, Javon East, and Adrian Ugrinic are likely to start up front, in place of Mohamed Abu Rumi, Zaahi Ahmed, and Igor Zlatanović, who started the previous European match. In total, Kozuch is planning at least seven or eight alterations to the team that played in Europe.
Defender Idan Nahmias is confirmed to be out with a hamstring injury and will miss upcoming games. A club spokesperson stated the team's focus is on securing a home win to stay near the top of the league, emphasizing the squad's depth and the need for all players to contribute. The projected starting lineup includes Ofir Marciano in goal, a defense of Stoyanov, Vítor, Rotman, and Davidzada, a midfield of Yehoshua, Kanaan, and Peretz, and a forward trio of East, Ganach, and Ugrinic.
