The lower playoff games continue now, with Bnei Sakhnin hosting Maccabi Bnei Rayna at the Doha Stadium as part of the 27th round of the Premier League. Kobi’s trainees want to cling to Beitar Jerusalem at the top of the playoffs in order to stay away from the bottom, while the visitors are looking for points that will help them in the fight for relegation.
The hosts came to the game after the victory in the final round of the regular season against Beitar Jerusalem, when they managed to win 0:2 thanks to the goals of Nicolao Cardoso and Dor Hogi.
On the other side, Benny Raina has been looking great lately and recorded two wins against Nes Ziona and Hapoel Yerushalayim, now she is ranked 12th which leaves her chances of staying alive.
If it succeeds in winning, Bnei Sakhnin will stick with Beitar Jerusalem and rise to eighth place in the lower playoff table, while opening a gap of 12 points from the red line. On the other hand, a win for Raina will make it equal to Hapoel Tel Aviv above it, with 27 points in total.
