Maccabi Tel Aviv is preparing for a significant match against Beitar Jerusalem on Monday, aiming to reclaim the top spot in the league. The team, managed by Kenny Miller, lost their first-place position after Maccabi Haifa's victory. To regain the lead, Maccabi Tel Aviv needs a strong performance at Teddy Stadium.
There is positive news regarding winger Osher Davida, who has completed a full training session and is expected to be available for the squad. Coach Miller confirmed he is working to ensure Davida is fit for the important game. However, Shagiv Yehezkel is anticipated to start on the right wing, forming the front three with Este Socoler and Helio Varela.
Coach Miller is not planning significant changes to the starting lineup that faced Sakhnin, with the exception of Yehezkel's expected inclusion. The team's limited squad depth and injury concerns have led to opportunities for youth players. Ilai Ben Simon has returned to train with the senior team, joined by two players from the youth squad, Noam Levy and Itay Karam.
The projected starting lineup includes Ofek Malika, James Tavernier, Mohammed Ali Camara, Raz Shlomo, Noam Ben Harush in defense and midfield, with Iissouf Sissoko, Gabi Kanykovsky, and Dor Peretz in midfield, and Shagiv Yehezkel, Helio Varela, and Este Socoler up front.
