This could be an interesting match as Hapoel Umm al-Fahm have their presumed home advantage while Hapoel Rishon LeZion are ahead 15 points in the Liga Leumit table.

It's no vacation for neither Hapoel Umm al-Fahm nor Hapoel Rishon LeZion as both were in action only a few days ago. Expect some tired legs on the pitch and/or possibly some changes to the lineups.

Relegation threatens al-Fahm who should definitely be looking for some points here. Hapoel Rishon LeZion are staying put at 2nd place whatever happens for the rest of the season.
