Maccabi Haifa: Israeli champions Maccabi Haifa will host the Europa League match against Spain's Villarreal in Cyprus, the Israeli club said in a statement on Friday, citing UEFA's decision.

Due to the ongoing war between Israel and Hamas, which broke out on October 7, UEFA banned the holding of competitions in Israel until further notice.

The Haifa-Villarreal meeting, on Matchday 4 of Group F, will take place on the original date, November 9, at the AEK Arena in Larnaca.
