Hapoel Nof HaGalil form and stats

The home fans haven’t been spoiled with victories in the Liga Leumit this season. Hapoel Nof HaGalil have only managed 3 wins, 2 draws and 6 losses from their games here at Green Stadium. When Hapoel Nof HaGalil hosts teams that live in the bottom of the table (like Agudat Sport Ashdod, Kafr Qasim, Hapoel Ramat Gan, Hapoel Nof HaGalil and Hapoel Ramat HaSharon), they have won 1 of 2 matches!

Hapoel Nof HaGalil drew their last game, also a home match. Hapoel Ramat Gan (placed 14th) was the opponent, 0-0 the score.

A defeat was the result before that one, 1-2 away at Hapoel Rishon LeZion.

The manager Hohenboym will start preparations for the next game as soon this is finished, as the hosts are going to Hapoel Umm al-Fahm in only four days.

HaGalil have conceded 20 from these games. There's been improvement defensively lately, as only 2 of these goals has been conceded in their last three home matches.

Hapoel Afula form and stats

There's been little loot from Hapoel Afula's travels as they have only collected 6 points from 11 away games in the Liga Leumit. Hapoel Afula only have 1 win to counter their 7 defeats and 3 draws. Hapoel Afula seem to be suffering from homesickness with two consecutive losses away. Third time lucky?

This fixture can not go any worse than the last one, a State Cup home loss versus Beitar Jerusalem with 0-4 on the scoreboard.

A 1-2 defeat away at Maccabi Petah Tikva before that.

Low-scoring game? 11 of this side's most recent 14 league rounds have contained zero, one or two goals.

A new game in only four days for Afula, the Liga Leumit home match versus Maccabi Ahi Nazareth. Busy days.

The attacking power of Hapoel Afula when travelling is not overwhelming with 10 goals scored from 11 league matches away. In the opposite end, Hapoel Afula have conceded 20 goals in their away games. When Afula is visiting a side on the bottom half, 2 of 2 matches have ended with three or more goals. These are matches against Agudat Sport Ashdod, Kafr Qasim, Hapoel Ramat Gan, Hapoel Ramat HaSharon and Hapoel Afula.
