Ivić's dilemma: the classic formation or the formation against Ashdod

The season's game is about to begin: the Maccabi Tel Aviv coach will decide between the offensive formation that defeated Beitar or the defensive formation that dominated against Ashdod. If he chooses the second formation, Yovanovich and Gloch may wait on the bench. Nir Biton has recovered and may start, Yonatan Cohen is expected to be included in the squad

Maccabi Tel Aviv

Controversies in Maccabi Tel Aviv ahead of the first game of the season tomorrow against Maccabi Haifa.

According to the practices, Vladan Ivitch is debating between sticking to the team that defeated Beitar Jerusalem on the eve of the national team break and switching to a team similar to the one he started against MS Ashdod away. Maccabi Tel Aviv did not beat Ashdod ' was sent off and Oskar Gloch was on the bench), but she dominated the midfield with three midfielders (Dan Glazer, Dor Peretz and Gabi Kanikovski) and the consideration of the Maccabi Tel Aviv coach is whether to place another defensive force in the midfield at the expense of the offensive part or to go with all faith It is possible to win in Haifa even with Ivić's classic attacking lineup from the beginning of the season.

As far as Nir Biton and Yonatan Cohen are concerned, it seems that both will be in the squad. The former has a good chance to start, the latter is expected to sit on the bench and maybe come up for a few minutes.

Daniel Peretz, Andre Geraldesh, Nir Biton, Sharan Yeni, Enrik Saborit, Ofir Davidzadeh, Dan Glazer, Dor Peretz, Gabi Kanikowski, Parfa Giagon, Eran Zahavi.
