Hapoel Umm al-Fahm form and stats

Hapoel Umm al-Fahm's struggle is real here at Acre Municipal Stadium with only 14 points collected from 15 Liga Leumit games. The win-draw-lost numbers are ugly: 3-5-7. With nine home Liga Leumit games in a row without a win, the Hapoel Umm al-Fahm fans could feel they are not getting value for their money. It remains to be seen whether this unfortunate streak, which started after the Hapoel Kfar Shalem game long ago, can be stopped today.

al-Fahm are hoping to put things right at home after a defeat in their previous match, the score 0-2 away versus Maccabi Ahi Nazareth. Preceding that game was the home draw versus Hapoel Kfar Shalem that ended 1-1.

The manager M. Ivanir will start preparations for the next game as soon this is finished, as the hosts are going to Hapoel Ra'anana in only four days.

The goals haven't exactly been flowing for al-Fahm here at Acre Municipal Stadium in the league, with less than one goal per game on average (11 from 15 games). It's been trouble in front of goal recently, as only 1 of these goals has been scored in their last three home matches. 18 goals have been conceded. There's been improvement defensively lately, as only 2 of these goals has been conceded in their last 3 home matches.

Hapoel Acre form and stats

3 wins, 7 draws and 5 losses. That’s the product of Hapoel Acre playing as the away team in the Liga Leumit this season. The sun doesn’t shine and the birds do not sing for Hapoel Acre, who have now gone 13 games without a victory. The Beitar Tel Aviv Ramla game was their last win and it’s been a dry spell since. Hapoel Acre has lost their two previous away games and are eager to kill a negative trend in its infancy.

The manager M. Dego was unhappy after their last game, a Liga Leumit match played at their home ground Acre Municipal Stadium. Hapoel Acre suffered a 2-3 loss to Kafr Qasim. It was a defeat before that one as the away game against Hapoel Ra'anana wasn't a success with a 2-4 loss.

Late heartbreak for Acre in the Kafr Qasim match, as the deciding 2-3 goal came deep into overtime.

The attacking power of Hapoel Acre when travelling is not overwhelming with 12 goals scored from 15 league matches away. As opposed to that, Acre have seen the ball go into their own net 17 times on the road.
