Deportivo Will face
Bnei Sakhnin in their first game at the intertoto.
Sakhnin won the 2 legs against FC Zerna from Maccedonia and progressed to the next stage and will have to face depor.
the first leg will be held at the keryat eli-ezer stadium in haifa (which is very close to my house!) this saturday. and a week after sakhnin will travel to the reazor.
sakhnin are the best arab team in the israeli league, the only team from an arab city in the israeli premier league... it is the 2nd time they play in the intertoto, the last time the got knocked out by newcastle.
it will be only the 2nd time in 5 years that a spanish team comes to play in israel and I will go watch them for the second time
I'm very excited towards it.
I expect sakhnin to pull a draw in israel and then get a thrashing in spain.
anyway, I'm hoping to see some good stuff from guardado, omar bravo, valeron, coloccini and the others.
