Maccabi Netanya is preparing for an away match against Hapoel Hadera this Saturday at 7:00 PM, while awaiting a disciplinary ruling regarding their game against Hapoel Petah Tikva. The club is concerned about complacency, warning players against underestimating Hadera despite their off-field issues. The team emphasized that Hadera, with their backs against the wall, will be motivated to prove themselves.
Coach Roni Levi is considering a highly offensive lineup, potentially featuring a front four. While the defense is expected to remain unchanged after securing a clean sheet in their last 1-0 victory over Kiryat Shmona, the attacking positions may see shifts. Levi has praised substitute players for their contributions in the recent win. Yesterday's training saw Aylon Almog practicing in place of Eizak, and Dor Hugi starting over Basseem Zaroura, suggesting a potential attacking setup with Almog, Hugi, Oz Bilo, and Matheus Dabo.
Maor Levy, who has returned to training after a suspension, is awaiting his chance from the bench. The coaching staff is experimenting with different attacking combinations and has not yet finalized the lineup. Dolev Haziza will miss the match due to recurring foot pain, having previously shown improvement. Following a price reduction for tickets to 70 shekels, the fan association has ended its boycott, and several hundred supporters are expected to accompany the team.
The estimated lineup includes Samuel Silva in goal, a defense of Alon Azugi, Olivier Verdon, Bakary Konate, and Grigory Morozov, with Aziz Ouattara and Gabriel Simion in midfield. The attacking unit could feature Dor Hugi (or Basseem Zaroura), Aylon Almog (or Eizak), Oz Bilo, and Matheus Dabo.
