Hapoel Tel Aviv vs Ashdod: match statistics
Hapoel Tel Aviv presents impressive home form with an 88% win rate and a +10 goal difference at their own stadium. The hosts have won 7 of their last 8 matches in front of their home crowd, averaging 2.13 goals per game while maintaining 50% clean sheets. Ashdod is enduring a dramatic crisis – they have lost all of their last 5 matches, failing to score a single goal while conceding 17. The visitors have poor away efficiency (29% win rate, averaging 1.29 goals per game) and a high tendency for draws (43%); however, their current catastrophic form (0 points in the last 5 matches) practically rules out a positive result. The difference in quality, confirmed by xG statistics (1.6 vs 1.27 in favor of the hosts) and the possession advantage, strongly favors Hapoel Tel Aviv for a decisive victory.
