Maccabi Tel Aviv - Hapoel Tel Aviv (21:00, Sports 5)

After a month and a half, Maccabi Tel Aviv returned to win the Euroleague last Thursday when they defeated Valencia by Yad Eliyahu.

Despite the victory, the Yellows' chances of qualifying for the playoffs are still nil, and the team is broadcasting that the main goal at this stage is to try and generate positive momentum and finish the season in Europe in the best possible way.

Meanwhile, Maccabi hopes to keep themselves free from losses in the derby this season, when Yannis Sapropoulos will have to make difficult decisions regarding enrollment in the squad in dealing with Scotty Wilbkin not fully qualified, and in poor shape, but in significant games the professional team tends to include him in the squad.

Omri Caspi is expected to continue to increase his number of minutes in the upcoming game.



Hapoel Tel Aviv has suffered four consecutive losses since the victory over Hapoel Eilat, when the replacement of Yannis Castritis with Danny Franco and the addition of Justin Tillman failed to stop the snowball and the Reds are very close to the place that leads to the national team.

On Thursday, Hapoel dropped a double-digit advantage in Ness Ziona when they recorded a very weak last quarter, and in addition to all the trouble, an injury was added to Justin Tillman.

The new inside player underwent a photo over the weekend that the initial opinion shows is not a serious injury, but it appears he will not be dressing for the derby.

One who may return to activity is Reggie Apshou who has completed his isolation period from Corona, but has only returned to practice this weekend after almost two weeks without training.

Must get better.

Hapoel Beer Sheva - Maccabi Haifa (18:30, 5PLUS)

The impressive victory over Gilboa / Galil in the middle of the week brought Hapoel Beer Sheva closer to the top six, and at the same time proved the potential that Rami Hadar's Reds have.

While chin Eric Thompson did not impress in his debut in the Negev, his collaboration with Eric Griffin makes the team one of the most dangerous in the league under the baskets.

In Be'er Sheva, they know that they come with the tag of a favorite to face Maccabi Haifa, also thanks to the crushing victory in the first round, but they convey to the players that they must come with record aggression to get past the Greens.



After two victories from 14 games, including a single league victory in the last ten rounds, the owners of Maccabi Haifa decided to shock the system and fired Daniel Savannah and appointed his assistant Amit Ben David in his place.

Haifa underwent a change during the last break, reduced the number of foreigners, but even that did not help it and it lost to Nahariya on Thursday and dived deeper into the last place.

Haifa know that if they do not find the way to start winning games, they may find themselves in a few more rounds by a large margin from the place left in the Premier League, and will need a much higher ability than Kylin Lucas, who against Nahariya scored 1 of 14 from the field.
