Maccabi Haifa is preparing for their upcoming Monday match against Hapoel Beersheba, aiming to maintain their top position in the league. Coach Barak Bakhar faces a significant decision at left-back between Tsunami, who has been training in the role, and Kenny Saif, the recent starter. Tsunami offers a more defensive option and could allow Bakhar to deploy a three-man defense alongside Nigel Lonwijk and Noam Steifman. Yalla Betaye is expected to start at right-back, despite consideration for Eli Dasa, who is only fit for approximately half a game. The team is also working to get Ali Mohamed ready for the match; he finished Friday's training early due to injury management. There is optimism he will be fit to play in this crucial game, with Yarin Levy on standby if Mohamed is unavailable. Bironinho has completed a full training session and is set to start in midfield. It appears that nine players have secured spots in Bakhar's starting lineup for the game against Beersheba.
