Why is Hapoel BS optimistic? • What should Maccabi Tel Aviv be wary of? • Is Ziv Arya still a magician? • What awaits Roni Levy? • And who is pressuring Maccabi Haifa?


go outside

Hapoel BS needs to win its next two away games, against Sektia Nes Ziona (tomorrow) and Bnei Sakhnin (Tuesday), in order to get closer to Maccabi Haifa to within 4 points. It starts on Saturday at 15:00, and in the Negev capital they can at least be optimistic From the following statistic: They are the best away team in the league.Except for the Greens, they won every other game outside of Turner.

Cranka's test.

The coach of Maccabi Tel Aviv went "all in" against Maccabi Haifa - and took the whole pot. In the upset derby he was "kidnapped", rightfully so, for his management of the game. It is likely that Sakhnin will not give the Yellows any space to play and will crowd in behind, and that the Spaniard will have to be creative, Even during the game itself, to take the critical points.

Where are you?

Before the World Cup break, Hapoel Jerusalem was considered the surprise of the league, but after - a nada.

Dismissal from the cup by Maccabi Petah Tikva, 7 consecutive league games without a win and even unnecessary clashes with referees. If Ziv Aryeh works magic again - especially against Maccabi Netanya, which has returned to itself - the Reds' place in the top playoffs is in jeopardy.

The last chance?

Hapoel Haifa wants a top playoff, and for that it turned its face.

On Saturday, against MS Ashdod, it will be a game for 6 points for the top spot.

Roni Levy knows that until the end of the round Beitar Jerusalem, Maccabi Haifa and Maccabi Tel Aviv are waiting for him, so against Ashdod it is not only a direct fight, but also an opportunity that should not be missed.

Something to think about.

Hapoel Hadera lost to Maccabi Haifa in 8 of the last 9 meetings between them.

Coach Menachem Koretsky, who signed last week and has already defeated Beitar, is responsible for the only draw. He achieved a 0:0 against the Greens in the opening round of last season, a result he buys this time as well. But the champion wants to interrupt a streak of two league games without a win, and must points in the championship fight.
