NextGOAL tip: Maccabi Petah Tikva (level) · 2 stars
These two teams meet so often that they count as a familiar pairing, and Maccabi Petah Tikva has usually been the side collecting more results in many of the recent meetings. But the situation now is different: both have 6 points from 7 matches, separated only by 11th and 12th place, and each just ended their latest game with a win. Hapoel Ramat Gan have found a bit of rhythm, having just won 2-0 in their latest match, but overall this season they have scored only 6 goals from 7 matches. Maccabi Petah Tikva, despite losing 5 in a row, have scored 10 goals from the same number of matches. The stats from the last 10 games point to clearly different characters: the hosts have less possession and manage about 3 shots on target per game, while the visitors get about 5 shots on target per game. This game is likely to be more open and exchanged in midfield rather than a waiting, defensive setup, because both sides have attacks that rely on space and counter-attacking rhythm. Maccabi Petah Tikva have the greater chance of creating opportunities, but they must beware the second half, when they often concede easily. The picture in the first half is likely to be a game that does not open up, while in the second half both sides should push higher and trade more.
