Support
The fan base of Bnei Sakhnin is smaller in comparison to other Israeli clubs. The majority of fans of Bnei Sakhnin are Arab Israelis.
Big matches (especially those against rival club Beitar Jerusalem) can attract large crowds but toward the end of the 2005-06 season when the club was set to be relegated, the attendance at matches declined dramatically. The peak of fan attendance was the Israel State Cup final when Ramat Gan Stadium was filled with Arabs from Israel, Jordan, Qatar and the UAE who had all come to support the club.
