Hapoel Afula form and stats
Hapoel Afula have only collected 5 points from their away games in the Liga Leumit, after 1-2-6 (9 played). Three might be a magic number, but there's been little wizardry in Afula's last three away games as they have all been lost.
Impressive finishing from D. Bitton secured the home win 1-0 against Hapoel Ra'anana in their previous game. A 1-2 defeat away at Hapoel Nazareth Illit before that.
