Maccabi Haifa are the fourth team of the last season in Israel, finishing with 53 points and 45-42 goal difference after 36 matches. The team also win domestic cup, defeating Maccabi Tel Aviv in the final, 1-0. The team had poor start of the season as they have already got eliminated in Europa League, making way to Estonian side Kalju after losing penalty shootout (1-1, 1-1). Today’s visitors played two matches in Toto Cup, drawing with Shmona, 0-0, and beating Sakhnin, 2-1.
Despite recent success, Hapoel are unable to beat today’s opponents in their last eight head-to-heads with Maccabi Haifa, taking four draws and four defeats since October 2014. Unlike Maccabi, Hapoel show excellent results at the start of the season and we have all reasons to expect Beer Sheva side to end such poor run of results in this match, gaining another trophy.
Prediction for the match: Hapoel Beer Sheva to win.
