Carrying a 5 point dominance in the league table, Bnei Yehuda supporters want to see their adored players earn maximum points from this match vs Hapoel Ra'anana.

It's no vacation for neither Bnei Yehuda nor Hapoel Ra'anana 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.

Bnei Yehuda form and stats

4-4-4 (win-draw-lost) are the Liga Leumit numbers at home for Bnei Yehuda so far this season. It's trouble wherever Bnei Yehuda are playing these days as they have suffered four straight defeats now, regardless of arena. They really need to get back to winning ways.

The club members are hoping that Yehuda will strike back in this fixture, putting things right after the 1-2 away loss in the match against Hapoel Afula (placed 14th).

Ahead of that match, Bnei Yehuda lost 0-2 at home to Agudat Sport Ashdod.

The betting market estimate that the home team has about 55-60% chance of winning this match. There could be betting value if you think differently, so to help you here are the stats from Bnei Yehuda's earlier matches at home being 55%-60% favourite: Played four games, won two matches, drawn one and lost one.

The Yehuda fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 15 in 12 matches. It's been trouble in front of goal recently, as only 0 of these goals has been scored in their last three home matches.

Hapoel Ra'anana form and stats

As the visiting team in Liga Leumit matches, Hapoel Ra'anana have produced an overall stat of 3-4-5 so far. Hapoel Ra'anana seem to be suffering from homesickness with two consecutive losses away. Third time lucky?

Hapoel Ra'anana have been frustrated by their lack of goals lately, as they haven't scored in the league since they found the net 193 minutes ago. Olawale was the goal scorer.

The manager Cohen was unhappy after their last game, played at their home venue National Stadium Ramat Gan. Ra'anana suffered a 0-2 loss to Maccabi Bnei Raina (placed 2nd).

Prior to that match, the Hapoel Ra'anana manager Cohen faced defeat when travelling to Hapoel Rishon LeZion and losing 0-1.

The visitors are returning home after this fixture, hosting Hapoel Kfar Saba in just three days.

The attacking power of Hapoel Ra'anana when travelling is not overwhelming with 9 goals scored from 12 league matches away. It's been trouble in front of goal recently, as only 1 of these goals has been scored in their last three away matches.
