An important duel in the bottom section of the Ligat ha'Al, with both Hapoel Hadera and Hapoel Tel Aviv experiencing more worry than joy. This match is a classic "six-pointer" with the home team placed 12th and the visitors in 14th place.
- Hapoel Hadera have played more matches over 2,5 goals home than away.
- Hapoel Tel Aviv has the most dropped points from leading position (11) in Ligat ha'Al
Hapoel Hadera and Hapoel Tel Aviv should both be in good shape for this meeting, as there's been enough days for both of them to train and rest since their last matches.
Hapoel Hadera form and stats
Hapoel Hadera's results here at Winner Stadium in the Ligat ha'Al have been very modest with 2 victories, 3 draws and 4 defeats. The Hadera manager S. Mimer might feel some added pressure to get something from this game after two straight home defeats.
Hadera enjoyed a nice away win last time out, playing at Bnei Sakhnin's place. The match ended 2-0 with M. Plakuschenko and S. Gozlan scoring. Preceding that match was a defeat to Ironi Kiryat Shmona (0-1).
There will be little rest for Hadera after this match as they are travelling to Maccabi Tel Aviv for a Ligat ha'Al game in only three days.
Hadera are certainly not overdoing their scoring at home in league matches, having created 11 goals in 9 games. 13 goals have been conceded.
Hapoel Tel Aviv form and stats
There's been little loot from Hapoel Tel Aviv's travels as they have only collected 6 points from 8 away games in the Ligat ha'Al. Hapoel Tel Aviv, who have the fewest scored goals (4) away in Ligat ha'Al, only have 2 wins to counter their 6 defeats and 0 draws.
There were no winners in Aviv's previous match, a Ligat ha'Al home game that ended 1-1 vs Ironi Kiryat Shmona (placed 7th). Preceding that game was the away victory against Beitar Jerusalem with the score of 1-0.
The schedule is very tough for Hapoel Tel Aviv now as they have to travel again shortly after this match. A Ligat ha'Al game at Maccabi Petah Tikva is waiting in only three days.
There's been a serious shortage of goals from Aviv's away games in the league this season with only 4 goals from 8 matches. It's worth mentioning that 3 of these goals has been scored in their last three away matches. 9 goals have been conceded by Aviv in these games.
