Team News: Maccabi Netanya
Due to a mostly healthy squad, there’s just the one fitness worry for the Maccabi Netanya gaffer Ren Kozuk to be concerned with. Saher Taji (inflammation) won’t be in action.

We’re thinking that Maccabi Netanya will surely be able to score against this Beitar Jerusalem side, but that probably won’t be as many as they will have scored against them.
We can see a close game with a 2-1 winning margin for Beitar Jerusalem at full-time. Should be a good one.
