Coach Barak Bakhar is expected to start goalkeeper Marko Wolf, with Miguel Vitor, Jibril Diop, and Ofir Davidzada forming the defensive line.

The club emphasized the importance of the game as a title battle leading to further trophies, stating their ambition to continue winning as many titles as possible. Several players, including Mohammed Abu Romi, Javon East, Zahi Ahmed, and Samir Farhoud, will miss the match due to suspensions from the State Cup final.

Meanwhile, Hapoel Be'er Sheva is still searching for a foreign center-back and a left-back to replace Helder Lopes. However, as the club has not officially parted ways with Lopes, his continued presence remains a possibility. The expected starting eleven includes Marko Wolf; Guy Mizrahi, Miguel Vitor, Jibril Diop, Ofir Davidzada; Kings Kangwa, Lucas Ventura, Eliel Peretz; Roy Levy, Amir Ganah, and Igor Zlatanovic.
