Hapoel Haifa midfielder שי אליאס is in doubt for the upcoming match against Maccabi Tel Aviv due to back pain. Elias has not trained since the beginning of the week and did not complete a full training session on Thursday morning. He played in the previous game against Hapoel Ramat Gan with an injection due to the same issue. Elias's potential absence is compounded by the suspension of fellow midfielder שיק קייטה, who was sent off in the last match. This means two of coach חיים סילבס's three regular midfielders might miss the game. Tal Naim is expected to return to the squad after recovering from an injury, while William Agada will continue to be sidelined. Due to the significant absences, Silev is considering switching to a three-defender formation or sticking with a four-defender setup. If a three-defender system is chosen, ג`ורג` דיבה is likely to start. Both formations will be practiced until the end of the week, with the final decision to be made closer to the match.
