Hapoel Haifa will reach the first league playoff game against Maccabi Tel Aviv in a missing lineup. Striker Eden Ben Best suffers a leg injury and will undergo an MRI today to test the severity of the injury. In any case, he will not qualify until Saturday.

The Gili Vermouth midfielder will also be absent, even though a tear ultrasound examination over the weekend revealed no rupture of the twin muscle. Vermouth will return to training gradually during the week and will not be available to the professional team against Maccabi Tel Aviv. If that is not enough, midfielder Ophir Mizrahi also suffers from an injury to his leg and doubt he will recover from it until Saturday.

In the foreign sector, this week, Haifa will try to reach an agreement with the players regarding the June salary. The proposal for foreigners is about a 50 percent cut in wages, but they are refusing it at this point. In a certain situation, it is strange to say, Hapoel Haifa can reach a situation where all five of its foreign players will not be part of the team in the top playoff games. In any case, the game against the foreign Maccabi Tel Aviv will appear as it is part of May.
