Maccabi Haifa-Panathinaikos: The “clover” for… the gross gulf in Israel

by

Trial in Israel for Panathinaikos.

“Clover” is hosted (22:00, Cosmotesport 6, News Bulletin 247, sport-fm.gr) from Maccabi Haifa in the context of the 2nd match of the Europa League group stage with the aim of a positive result, which can bring him even closer to European continuity.

His team Ivan Jovanovich he comes into the competition from a great night at the OAKA against Villarreal, who were beaten 2-0 and an eventual win would be an ideal result to put him firmly in contention for qualification. In addition, it will bring him closer to capturing 3rd place. As, however, he reported the Serbian technician: “I don’t think we are guaranteeing anything in terms of the final result or victory. I also believe that not winning is not devastating». Although he later admitted that “It would be ideal to win tomorrow».

Certainly and Mission of the “trefoil” is not easy, as he will compete in a “hot” home against an opponent who may not show the same dynamic after the departure of Barak Bakhar, but has produced performances from European matches in recent years. In order to get a result, the “greens” will need to show the same concentration and the same face compared to most of their European games this year, but also greater efficiency compared to the recent match against PAOK.

The injured man is obviously out Magnuson and Palmer-Brown, while Aitor traveled to Israel but participated in part of the training and logic says that it is not the most likely scenario that he competes. It is reminded that Geremegev, who saved the game against PAOK, has not been declared on the European list.

On the other hand, Maccabi Haifa got off to a poor start to their Europa League group stage as they were beaten 3-0 by Rennes in France in the opener. In the league, they won 3-2 at the home of Maccabi Netanya and returned to winning in Israel and Europe after three matches, as they had one defeat (3-2 against Maccabi Tikva) and one draw (1-1 with Bnei Sakhnin) in of the borders, beyond the defeat by the French. The winger Khaziza from Maccabi will probably be out, due to a problem in the achilles.
