Perhaps a welcome break from league football as Bnei Sakhnin & Maccabi Bnei Raina face off to decide who makes it to next stage of the Toto Cup Ligat Al. All the pre-match information is available here!
There has not been much time to rest for the guests, as they played a Toto Cup Ligat Al game only four days ago.
Bnei Sakhnin form and stats
Bnei Sakhnin was eliminated in the 7th place final last season in the Toto Cup Ligat Al.The Sakhnin boss Silbas and his crew return home after a 2-2 draw away versus Ironi Kiryat Shmona in the Toto Cup Ligat Al.
The match schedule is unforgiving for Bnei Sakhnin as they have a new game in only three days, a Ligat ha'Al match thankfully also at home. Maccabi Haifa are visiting.
Maccabi Bnei Raina form and stats
This game can not go any worse than the last one, a Toto Cup Ligat Al home defeat versus Ironi Kiryat Shmona with 1-2 on the scoreboard.
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 Maccabi playing away, we found 4 games. Results were 1 away win, 1 draw and 2 home wins.
The schedule is very tough for Maccabi Bnei Raina now as they have to travel again shortly after this match. A Ligat ha'Al game at Maccabi Tel Aviv is waiting in only four days.
