Maccabi Haifa midfielder, Muhammad Abu Fani, will not be in the squad for the Haifa derby against Hapoel Haifa that will be held tonight (Wednesday) in the round of 16 of the State Cup.
The midfielder is suffering from pain in his ribs and yesterday he abandoned the final training session.
In light of the fact that there is no benefit in his situation, it was decided not to include him in the roster.
Because of this, midfielder Neta Lavi may start in Barak Bakr's 11 next to Ali Muhammad, despite the fact that in the background there are negotiations going on about his transfer to the Japanese Gamba Osaka.
Beyond that, coach Barak Becher may make another change or two in the 11, when there is a debate between Raz Meir and Linon Eliyahu in the right back position.
On the other hand, Hapoel Haifa will arrive with a missing lineup.
The brakes Hatem Abdelhamid (injured) and Constantinos Sotrio (suspended) will be missed.
Louis Taha will start in the 11th despite suffering from fluid in his knee.
Niso Capiluto will also play as he only recently returned from injury.
Midfielder Liran Sardel is injured but will get a shot and will be in the squad.
Coach Roni Levy is expected to return striker Alon Turgeman to the 11, after he was eliminated on Saturday against Bnei Sakhnin.
Kwami Kawi will return to the bench.
