After the disappointing loss to Dijon in the FIBA Champions League, Hapoel Jerusalem wants to return to the winning track. Aleksandar Dzikic’s team will tune in tomorrow (Saturday, 19:10, live on 5PLUS) for an away game against Hapoel Eilat and will look for their ninth victory this season in the league.
Those who will not register for the game are Sim Sander-Vena and Brandon Brown, while at the same time TJ Klein, who signed last Thursday with the club, is still not available to Džikić.
Last week, Hapoel Jerusalem struggled but came out with a dramatic 82:84 victory over Bnei Herzliya, and now has a good opportunity to continue to improve its balance sheet, while Eilat, on the other hand, has already recorded six consecutive losses.
Hapoel Jerusalem beat Hapoel Eilat in nine of the last 11 official meetings between them, including twice this season: 74:82 in the Winner Basket Cup and 68:82 in the last round
