Maccabi Tel Aviv will host Hapoel Beersheba in the match of the 23rd round of the Israeli Championship. On whose side will the victory be?
Maccabi Tel Aviv
As part of the 19th round, Maccabi Tel Aviv defeated Maccabi Haifa on its field, scoring three unanswered goals. It seemed that this victory would allow us to compete for the first place during the first part of the season, but in the next three matches the team from Tel Aviv did not achieve a single victory, gaining two points. Maccabi played 0-0 with Hapoel Tel Aviv and 1-1 with Bnei Sakhnin, and then lost 1-2 to Maccabi Netanya.
Hapoel Beersheba
"Hapoel" from Beersheba is not only in the top three, but also takes second place with 49 points. In the last round, he lost two points, having played 0-0 with Hapoel from Jerusalem, but in three rounds before that he scored the maximum number of points, alternately coping with Hapoel from Haifa (1-0), Neszion (1-0) and Bnei Sakhnin (1-0). It is the defense that is the strong point of "Hapoel" from Beersheba.
Statistics and figures:
- Maccabi three rounds without a win;
- Hapoel won in three of the last four rounds;
- Hapoel has not lost to Maccabi for four matches.
Forecast
"Hapoel" is in good shape, and Maccabi rarely wins, so I give preference to the guests, and also bet on a total of less than 2.5.
