Maccabi Haifa will host Hapoel Jerusalem this Sunday at the Sami Ofer Stadium.
In the background of publications about the interest of several teams in Europe in several players of the champion, coach Barak Becher is trying to keep his trainees with their feet on the ground for the meeting.
Last season Jerusalem segments a streak of 10 consecutive victories of the Greens.
Maccabi Haifa is coming into the season with the same streak and a desire to equal the club's record of 11 consecutive victories.
By the way, coach Barak Becher also has the same streak of ten wins in a row.
"This is a team in fourth place, that means they are strong. Remember the loss in the last game, we got it in our head. Last season they interrupted our streak and this is a team that knows how to cause problems, so you have to come at the peak of readiness. Hapoel Jerusalem knows how to make you look bad."
On breaking his personal record of 10 consecutive victories, Becher said: "It's always fun when there are challenges and breaking records. But the important thing is the fight in the league and to win, if we break records along the way, I'd be more than happy."
On the return of Charon Sherry to the squad, Bachar said: "There are many players who help us change formations as we go. Sherry is not injured, there was a fear of injury and he did not play."
Regarding the interest in players like Dolev Haziza and others, he said: "It's flattering that there is a will towards our players. It means a lot. With the exception of Neta, no one should leave, at least not now. They already released him after the derby and after Nes Ziona. Until things are concluded Between Neta and the team and between the clubs, he is here and at our disposal."
About the change he made in the club since he arrived, he said: "I didn't end up in a ruined place, there was a good foundation. Yankel', the management and all of us made a process here. It warms the heart. For me it is not right to talk right now because we are at the peak of our work. The goal is to win a third championship, along with Participating in the Champions League is a big challenge and my head is only focused on that."
