Hapoel Petah Tikva is performing significantly better than Ashdod in terms of current form and home statistics. The hosts have a balanced goal difference at home (0 goal difference) and a higher xG (1.49 vs 1.27), which indicates their offensive efficiency at their home stadium. Ashdod is in terrible form with only 0.4 points per match in the last five games and a series of five matches without a win. The visitors concede an average of 1.67 goals away with only 22% of away matches won, making them vulnerable to defeats. Although Hapoel Petah Tikva has only 30% wins at home, the advantage of form and playing at home should tip the scales of victory in their favor. I expect a balanced match with a slight advantage for the hosts, hence a moderate probability of their victory with a significant risk of a draw.
