Bnei Sakhnin is set to face Hapoel Jerusalem in their final match before the international break. The team, under coach Yossi Abuksis, has been on a strong run, with three wins and two draws in their last five league games. The coaching staff is emphasizing defense, noting that the team has conceded only one goal in the same five-match period. Abuksis is expected to maintain the same defensive lineup, meaning captain Maron Gantos will likely start on the bench again.

In midfield and attack, the team plans to continue with the same players. Ahmed Salman, who will be playing against the club where he grew up, is positioned behind Daniel Persky, who continues to get starts despite not yet scoring. Matthew Kodjo will play on the right wing, Elai Hajjaj on the left, and Antonio Spohr is expected to be on the bench for the fifth consecutive game.

Coach Yossi Abuksis described the upcoming match as a very difficult away game. "We are in a good period, we want to continue our performance from the recent period," he stated, expressing hope that this will lead to a victory and a happy break. Ahmed Salman, currently in good form, echoed this sentiment, stating, "We have an important game tomorrow against Hapoel Jerusalem before the break. We've done our training, we've prepared well. We want to win three points."

The expected lineup for Bnei Sakhnin is: Raul Balberao; Leroy Owusu, Ori Dahan, Iyad Abu Abid, Sana Gomes; Ahmed Taha, Modestus Vroobeyov, Ahmed Salman; Matthew Kodjo, Elai Hajjaj, and Daniel Persky.
