Hapoel Be'er Sheva is looking to recover from a significant 4-0 loss to Union SG on Thursday. The Israeli club currently has only one point in the Europa League and faces slim chances of advancing to the next stage. Despite the current standings, their qualification is not yet mathematically impossible. According to projections by Football Meets Data, Be'er Sheva is expected to finish third in their group with five points, giving them a 10% chance of reaching the knockout stage. The algorithm suggests that ten points could be sufficient for qualification from spots 9-24, while reaching the top eight would require 15 points. The team is not playing in Israel. Teams predicted to finish below Be'er Sheva are Viktoria Plzeň, Ararat, and Lillestrøm. The forecast indicates that the club is likely to receive an additional €920,000 in prize money based on their performance, which will be added to the €8.86 million already secured from their successful Champions League qualifying campaign. Hapoel Be'er Sheva's remaining matches are November 5th against AEK Athens at home, November 26th against Beşiktaş away, December 10th against Juventus at home, January 21st against Celta Vigo away, and January 28th against Bournemouth away.
