Maccabi Netanya is preparing to face Maccabi Haifa at Sammy Ofer Stadium, aiming to secure a sixth-place finish before the international break. Coach Roni Levi faces the challenge of a lineup change due to Isaac Rodriguez's suspension from the previous league game. Basem Zra'ura has been training on the left wing in Rodriguez's place, while Maor Levy is set to return to the starting lineup. Levi is also opting to start Romanian player Gabriel Simion over Nadav Nidam. Midfielder William Cyprian, who was reportedly close to leaving the club, has impressed in recent training sessions after losing 4 kilograms and improving his fitness. He may receive a renewed opportunity. Meanwhile, Amit Cohen is sidelined with pelvic bone inflammation, and Dolev Haziza is experiencing persistent foot pain, with the club hoping the upcoming break will help determine the correct treatment for the latter. The anticipated starting lineup for Netanya includes Samuel De Silva, Alon Azugi, Beny Feldman, Olivier Verdon, Giorgi Morozov, Gabriel Simion, Aziz Wattara, Maor Levy, Oz Bilo, Basem Zra'ura, and Mateusz Dabrowski.
