Just before the league goes into the national team break, three games will take place tonight (Sunday) in the seventh round of the basketball Premier League.
Hapoel Holon and Bnei Herzliya will meet at Toto Hall for a top game (19:45).
Maurizio Buscalia's side arrive after losses in the league and the Champions League.
In the last round it was Hapoel Tel Aviv that left it with only 62 points, and on Wednesday it was Cluj that inflicted its first loss in the European arena (after two overtimes).
The rival Bnei Herzliya is surprising so far, and placed at the top with a balance similar to the Purples (2: 4).
In the last round, she achieved her most significant victory this season, when she defeated Hapoel Jerusalem in the Jubilee Hall.

Maccabi Tel Aviv will try to recover from the defeat to Olympiacos in the Euroleague, when they play Maccabi at home against Maccabi Rishon Lezion (21:00) in the reconstruction of the cup final from last season.
"We want to get back to our pace and forget about the loss in Greece," said Maccabi.
On the other hand, the Oranges, who are in a 5: 1 balance, are looking to strengthen in several positions in order to get out of the difficult situation they have found themselves in.
In another game, Hapoel Gilboa / Galil will host Nes Ziona (19:00).
The two teams are in the same balance (3: 3), and the guest comes with excellent momentum - after recording three wins.
The locals will try to continue the momentum from the victory over Hapoel Galil Elyon in the derby.
