Agudat Sport Nordia form and stats

Last season their State Cup adventure ended in the 2nd round.

Happy days for Agudat Sport Nordia in their previous game, a fixture away at Beitar Ironi Kiryat Gat that ended with a 4-0 victory. As indicated by the result mentioned above, Agudat played a great game against Beitar Ironi Kiryat Gat and beat them comfortably. Expectations are high for this one.

Before that, Agudat Sport Nordia had a Liga Bet - South B home game versus Hapoel Segev Shalom which ended with a victory 4-0.

The bookmakers consider this a fairly even contest. One could say only the home advantage separates the teams. It could be relevant to look at how Agudat Sport Nordia have performed in matches similar to this (as small favourites). Our database has found 6 matches with the results: Won 2, drawn 1 and lost 3.

There's a new fixture coming up fairly quickly for Agudat, as the Liga Bet - South B home game vs Maccabi Ironi Netivot is only two days away.

MS Dimona form and stats

MS Dimona's mission in State Cup last season failed in the 2nd round.

MS Dimona's last game was the home draw against Maccabi Herzliya (1-1).

Before that, Dimona travelled to Maccabi Ashdod and returned home with a draw after the Liga Alef - Süd game finished 0-0.

So, this is expected to be a close game, an even contest. Looking at earlier matches with MS Dimona playing away and similar expectations, we found 9 relevant matches. Results were 2 MS Dimona wins, 3 draws and 4 defeats.

There might be some complaints about the fixture list from the MS Dimona manager as the team has another away game coming up in only three days, this time against Hapoel Bikat Hayarden.
