After losing points in the previous round, Hapoel Haifa and Hapoel Nof Hagalil will meet on Saturday (19:00) with Sami Ofer for a top game. The host is still missing. Defender Dor Malul is suffering from a toe crisis and will be replaced by Noam Cohen. Kevin Tapuco will return to the squad and is expected to open at 11 p.m.
The Red Club is mainly working on an attempt to call on the audience to reach Sami Ofer.
"About 2,000 fans arrived in Petah Tikva before the national team break and we disappointed them, we hope they will come this time as well and we will give them a smile back," they said at the club.
On the other hand, the newcomer will miss the brake Gutierre Tomlin, who dislocated his shoulder.
The fear is that the player will have to undergo surgery.
Dolev Azoulay is expected to replace him in the center of defense.
Coach Yaron Hochnaboim is undecided about the front.
Kevin Freiter is expected to open, and next to him will play one of two: Wago Kisito or Autumn Nachmani, who are both in excellent valley form.
Roi Shukerni will open the squad against the team he grew up with and said: "Hapoel Haifa is an excellent team, it's going to be a tough game for Sami Ofer. I grew up there, but once you get on the pitch everything is forgotten and the goals are clear. We want to continue to produce good results and come back forever."
