Maccabi Tel Aviv Prepares for Europa League Clash Against Sheriff Tiraspol
Maccabi Tel Aviv is set to host Sheriff Tiraspol on Thursday evening in their first home match of the European season, the second-leg qualifier of the UEFA Europa League. The Israeli club arrives confident with a commanding 5-0 lead from the first leg against the Moldovan side. Despite this advantage, the team emphasizes the importance of starting the season strongly, recalling last season's many challenges and aiming to secure another victory to boost fan excitement and atmosphere.
Following their impressive performance last week, coach Kenny Miller plans to make changes to the starting lineup. Notably, Helio Varela is expected to return to the starting eleven, potentially replacing Ido Shahar or Itamar Noy. Additionally, Shagiv Yehezkel is likely to start, while Tyrese Asante will be absent from the squad due to illness and did not travel with the team.
The club's focus is on maintaining momentum and generating enthusiasm among supporters early in the season as they seek to advance further in European competition.
