Hapoel Tel Aviv is set to face Hapoel Jerusalem at Teddy Stadium on Saturday, October 28th, in the eighth round of the Israeli Premier League. The team, coming off a challenging win against Ironi Tiberias with ten players, aims to continue its winning streak.
Coach Eli Nir Barda will be without two key players: Adrian Krave, who received a red card in the previous match, and Emmanuel Boateng, who suffered an injury and is expected to be sidelined for approximately two weeks. Boateng will require a specially made mask upon his return.
The main lineup decision for Barda revolves around who will lead the attack in Boateng's absence. While Barda was pleased with Stav Turiel's performance as a striker, the coach is leaning towards starting Omri Altman in that role, with Turiel shifting to his natural position on the right wing.
Due to the unavailability of Krave and Boateng, Barda will not have to decide which foreign player to exclude from the squad, meaning six foreign players will be included for the upcoming match. Lucas Falcao, who missed the previous game, is expected to return and start.
This match is crucial for Hapoel Tel Aviv as they seek to improve their away game statistics and build momentum and confidence for the upcoming Toto Cup final derby against Maccabi Tel Aviv on Thursday. The projected lineup includes Assaf Zur, Marcus Coco, Fernand Mayembo, Chico Alves, Yannick Lellindal, Lucas Falcao, El Yam Kancepolsky, Stav Turiel, Douglas Owusu, Roi Alkokin, and Omri Altman.
