Maccabi Haifa is expected to receive an additional 3,000 tickets for the benefit of the team's fans, ahead of Saturday's game against Maccabi Petah Tikva. Today (Thursday), representatives of the Ministry of Industry, Trade and Labor arrived at Shlomo Insurance Stadium to re-examine the situation.
As you may recall, about 3,000 of these places were banned from sale due to new requirements, which have not yet been met.
Now, there is a summary of the works and approval for Shabbat is expected to be received during the day.
When that happens, the tickets will go on sale and are expected to be snatched up shortly.
About 6,000 tickets were already sold yesterday within a few hours and the demand for Shabbat is huge, especially in light of the recent victory against Maccabi Tel Aviv.
Professionally, Haifa will arrive on Saturday after eight consecutive league victories, a record since Barak Bachar was appointed to his position as the team's coach.
The only hesitation is in the defensive positions, with Jose Rodriguez in great doubt due to a stretch and Ryan Strain feeling muscle tenderness.
In this situation, Raz Meir may return to the right-back position in place of the Australian, while San Menachem will open as the left-back.
No changes are expected in the other positions.
Beyond that, captain Neta Lavie may be on the roster for the first time in a long time after returning from a prolonged injury.
