Hapoel Umm al-Fahm form and stats

The story so far for the visiting team on their Liga Leumit travels is 3 wins, 0 draws and 1 defeat. Hapoel Umm al-Fahm have won three away matches in a row now and will not be intimidated by being the visitors in this fixture.

This game can not go any worse than the last one, a State Cup home defeat versus Beitar Ramat Gan with 0-4 on the scoreboard. A loss against Hapoel Katamon was the result prior to that, in a Liga Leumit home game.

A huge disappointment for Hapoel Umm al-Fahm in their last match (vs Beitar Ramat Gan). Leading 6-0 the victory seemed almost certain, but a fascinating collapse turned everything around and in the end all points were lost in a 0-4 defeat. Hapoel Umm al-Fahm lost the plot completely in their previous game, as mentioned above. They need to recover quickly from that 0-4 beating and focus on this one.

As mentioned above, the odds for this match puts the home team as favourites. Perhaps this eases the pressure on the away team, who are capable of producing an upset here on a good day. Looking at earlier matches with similar odds and Hapoel Umm al-Fahm playing away, we found one game. Results were 1 away win, 0 draws and 0 home wins.

The travelling fans enjoy Hapoel Umm al-Fahm's attacking play in away games, having scored 7 goals in 4 league matches away. Hapoel Umm al-Fahm have conceded 4 goals in these away matches.
