Hapoel Kfar Saba hope to sell some tickets for this game even though the season has been rough so far with 14 points and a 12th position in the Ligat ha'Al table. Visiting Maccabi Netanya holds 8th place with 19 pts.
Both teams should be fairly well rested for this game, as they have had some quiet days to prepare. Hopefully this will translate into lots of action on the pitch.
Hapoel Kfar Saba form and stats
The home fans haven’t been spoiled with victories in the Ligat ha'Al this season. Hapoel Kfar Saba have only managed 0 wins, 2 draws and 5 losses from their games here at Levita Stadium. With seven home games in a row without a win, the Hapoel Kfar Saba fans could feel they are not getting value for their money. It remains to be seen whether this unfortunate streak, which started after the Beitar Tel Aviv Ramla game long ago, can be stopped today.
Hapoel Kfar Saba are anxiously hoping for a goal as it's been 224 minutes since the last one in league fixtures. (Scored by B. Traore).
In their previous game, the manager O. Haim led his Hapoel Kfar Saba to a defeat in the Ligat ha'Al match away at Maccabi Tel Aviv. The manager is hoping to put things right immediately here at Levita Stadium. Ahead of that match, Hapoel Kfar Saba lost 0-3 at home to Ironi Kiryat Shmona.
Hapoel Kfar Saba were outplayed and humiliated in their previous game, as mentioned in the paragraph above. They will need to reinstall their confidence before this one.
The lack of attacking qualities in Hapoel Kfar Saba means that they have only scored 1 goal in 7 league home games, less than half a goal per match. Hapoel Kfar Saba have conceded 10 in these home matches.
Maccabi Netanya form and stats
There's been little loot from Maccabi Netanya's travels as they have only collected 6 points from 8 away games in the Ligat ha'Al. Maccabi Netanya only have 1 win to counter their 4 defeats and 3 draws.
Maccabi Netanya aren't clicking offensively as they have gone 196 league minutes without a goal. Y. Malede was the last player to find the net.
This game can not go any worse than the last one, a Ligat ha'Al home defeat versus Bnei Yehuda with 0-3 on the scoreboard. A 0-1 defeat away at Sektzia Nes Tziona before that.
Goals are few and far between in Maccabi Netanya's away league games. Only 3 goals from 8 travels. Maccabi Netanya have conceded 8 goals in these away matches.
