Bnei Yehuda form and stats

Bnei Yehuda have collected 8 points from their Liga Leumit home games so far after 2-2-2.

It's back home for Bnei Yehuda, who return with a good feeling about themselves after beating Hapoel Nazareth Illit away with the result 2-0. Kangani (2) found the net in that victory.

Preceding that match was a defeat to Ironi Tiberias (2-3).

Trouble hitting the net? Looking at this club's last 12 league games, 9 have contained less than three goals (under 2.5).
