Like summer uniforms, the Premier League teams arm themselves, get stronger, and draw lessons from last season.
Ahead of the opening of the 22/23 season in the Premier League, the reporters and commentators of "Israel Hayom" opened diaries, and hopefully you will too, and gave their personal predictions of how the season will end.
Top three: the top at the end of the season
Uri Ozan:
1. Maccabi Tel Aviv 2. Maccabi Haifa 3. Hapoel B.S
The fact that Maccabi Haifa will be in the European group stage and Maccabi Tel Aviv will be eliminated earlier will allow the Yellows to escape at the beginning of the season, which will ultimately decide the close fight.
Liav Nachmani:
1. Maccabi Haifa.
2. Maccabi Tel Aviv. 3. Hapoel BS
Barak Becher's team has been running together for two years, and with the reinforcement that came in the summer, it looks more connected and powerful.
Although she is expected to have a close battle with Maccabi Tel Aviv, it is precisely the challenge that will bring out their hundred percent from the Greens.
Shai Artzi:
1. Maccabi Tel Aviv. 2. Maccabi Haifa. 3. Hapoel B.S.
Maccabi Tel Aviv will win the championship not because it is better than Maccabi Haifa, but mainly because of two things: the yellows' hunger to win the title again, and above all because Haifa reached its peak too early, and the trip to Europe will affect it in a big way.
Yaakov Meir:
1. Maccabi Tel Aviv. 2. Maccabi Haifa. 3. Hapoel B.S.
Maccabi Haifa is a good and high-quality team, but the participation in Europe and an insufficient refresh in the offensive part - will work against it.
Maccabi Tel Aviv will reach a sharper and more focused league, and will also win the title.

Best of all: Player of the season
Uri Ozan:
Daniel Peretz.
The most talented goalkeeper who grew up here since Nir Davidovich and Dodo Avatt, got the best defense coach that was here.
A winning combination for Maccabi Tel Aviv.
Liav Nachmani:
Ali Muhammad.
The Nigerian midfielder of Maccabi Haifa looks like something that has not been in Israeli football for a long time.
It is easiest to choose a flashy attacking player, but there is someone who works for everyone and his name is Ali Muhammad.
Shai Artzi:
Eran Zahavi.
This never-ending player wants to end his career with titles and prove that even at the age of 35, the Premier League is still small for him.
He will finish with a double-double in goals and assists - and with the title of player of the season.
Yaakov Meir:
Eran Zahavi.
Keep saying that he is 35 years old and not what he used to be, and the best Israeli of our generation - and one of the best of all time - will continue to laugh and boo everyone on the way to more individual and team titles.

And the balls in the net: top scorer
Uri Ozan:
Franzadi Piero.
Maccabi Haifa will score the most this season, and the green striker will complete the goals that will be missing due to the drop in numbers of Omer Atzili and Dean David.
Just remember: offense sells tickets, but defense brings championships.
Liav Nachmani:
Eran Zahavi.
Even at his age, he is still the greatest scorer to emerge in Israeli football in the last generation, perhaps even since the establishment of the state.
If he is healthy, a 20-25 goal amount is something that the number 7 in yellow does with class, with zero effort.
Shai Artzi:
Franzadi Piero.
After a very close fight with Eran Zahavi, who will probably get a rest here and there in less important games, the green striker will poke a little more nets.
Yaakov Meir:
Franzadi Piero.
Barak Becher insisted on him and he knew why.
There are no defensive players in Israel who can handle his strength and speed.
Haifa's No. 9 is a wide beast, who will alone bring many points.

Managing the affairs: coach of the season
Uri Ozan:
Vladan Ivitch.
He returned after two years, and he is going to return the championship to Maccabi Tel Aviv after two years.
Liav Nachmani:
Barak Becher.
At the age of 42, he can become a historic coach with 6 championships - and he will not miss the opportunity.
Maybe on the way to a new challenge as a coach in Europe.
Shai Artzi:
Vladan Ivitch.
The Serbian will revive the gray and sleepy team that Maccabi Tel has had for the past two years, will not account for players who will fake, and will fulfill the task for which he came - a yellow championship plate.
Yaakov Meir:
Vladan Ivitch.
The Serbian general came to put Maccabi Tel Aviv back on track with discipline, order and organization, which will lead it to winning the championship. You can't argue with receipts.

What happened to you? Disappointment of the season
Uri Ozan:
Beitar Jerusalem. Although they escaped relegation on paper, they will be relegated to the second division on the field.
Liav Nachmani:
Hapoel Haifa.
Yoav Katz is once again declaring for the top playoffs, and for that he brought back the last coach who brought him there, Nir Klinger.
But these are different teams, and as things look in August, staying in the league will also be considered an achievement.
Shai Artzi:
M.S.
Ashdod.
After a wave of departures in the summer and a relatively unknown purchase, Ran Ben Shimon's team, despite the ambition, will find itself again in the struggles of the bottom, hoping to stay.
Yaakov Meir:
Hapoel Haifa.
The foreigners are not hitting, the Israelis are a little too full, and it seems that the new players do not match the style of play that coach Nir Klinger usually tries to instill in his teams.
