Maccabi Netanya, seeking to return to winning ways, will host Hapoel Jerusalem on Saturday. The team is still reeling from a draw against Ironi Tiberias and a technical loss awarded to Hapoel Petah Tikva by the Supreme Court. Adding to the club's challenges, they are also searching for a new CEO from abroad to replace Gil Lev.
Coach Roni Levi is reportedly considering an unusual approach for the upcoming match, not practicing the expected starting lineup on Thursday. He may stick with the same eleven players who started the previous game, despite a significant number of missed scoring opportunities in their last outing, where the team took 35 shots, with a double-digit number on target, but failed to score.
Levi is deliberating whether to replace a defensive midfielder with a more attacking player. A key decision involves the central defense, where the club is considering replacing foreign defender Bakaari Konate with Beny Feldman due to Konate's recent poor performance. The team is also reportedly pleased with the de-escalation of tensions between midfielder Maor Levi and the fans, following a meeting with supporters' representatives.
The projected starting lineup includes Samuel Silva, Alon Azugi, Bakaari Konate (or Beny Feldman), Giorgi Morozov, Aziz Wattara, Gabriel Simeon, Bassam Zaarura, Oz Bilu, Yitzhak, and Mateusz Dabo.
