As we wrote at the beginning of the week, Omri Caspi will not play against Milan (Thursday, 21:05) due to the desire of the Maccabi Tel Aviv medical team to return him gradually and avoid unnecessary congestion.
In contrast, John Dibertolomeo, who also returned this week from a prolonged injury, is due to play under a minute limit.
The one who will not yet be on the roster is Sandy Cohen, who was on the disciplinary committee following his behavior in the game against Hapoel Haifa and will not dress against the Italian team.
Coach Yannis Sapropoulos said in the run-up to the game: “We are playing against strong teams with a good balance and we need to be more focused at the end of games.
We talked about it a lot, and I hope it gets better. "
The Greek also referred to the significant disadvantage of the crowd: "Last season Yad Eliyahu was a fortress. For a team like Maccabi Tel Aviv it is not easy to play without fans and we try to get used to it.
When the injured return, we will return to see the team we were used to seeing. "
On the ability from the start of the season: "Obviously we could not get ready enough for this season when we had time to make just three preseason games. We lost a few close games and when you lose your confidence goes down. It's normal. We'll get over it because we are all together. One or two. "
