Hapoel Afula form and stats

Hapoel Afula's results here at Afula Illit Stadium in the Liga Leumit have been very modest with 1 victory, 2 draws and 3 defeats. Regardless of arena the trend is looking very unhealthy for Hapoel Afula with their four defeats in a row. Not since the Hapoel Kfar Saba game, 45 days ago, have they avoided a loss.

In their previous game, the manager Shavit led his Afula to a defeat in the Liga Leumit match away at Sektzia Nes Tziona. The manager is hoping to put things right immediately here at Afula Illit Stadium. As you see from the result above, Afula suffered greatly in their last game. Thankfully the team has a new chance to prove themselves in this one.

Before that game, the home loss against Hapoel Ra'anana with the scoreline 1-2.

Afula have scored 3 goals here in 6 league matches, a depressing statistic. Afula's goalkeeper has had to pick the ball out of their own net 6 times. For more goal stats, check the Statistics tab above.
