General match analysis
Maccabi Haifa are favorites after winning 4 of their last 5 matches, while Hapoel Katamon have won 2 in that span. Both teams scored 12 goals in those matches, but the visitors conceded just 7, compared with 12 for the hosts. At home, Hapoel average 3 goals per match and create chances worth 2,00 xG, so they should pose a threat to their opponents’ defense. However, they also concede an average of 3,5 goals at home, which, combined with Maccabi’s away average of 2,5 goals, significantly boosts the visitors’ chances. Maccabi’s away xG is 2,05, and they concede an average of 1,5 goals, so despite the hosts’ attacking potential, a Maccabi win is the more likely outcome.
View the statistical overviewBTTS - will both teams score?
In their last 5 matches, both teams recorded BTTS in 80% of games, and each averaged 2.4 goals scored, strongly supporting the prospect of goals at both ends. Hapoel conceded an average of 2.4 goals during this period, while Maccabi conceded 1.4, so both attacks should have opportunities to find the net. This is backed up by average xG figures of 2.11 for the hosts and 2.05 for the visitors, indicating that both sides create chances regularly. One counterpoint is Maccabi’s 50% clean-sheet rate away from home; however, Hapoel have had BTTS in 100% of their home matches and have not failed to score in any of them. Therefore, BTTS - Yes is more likely than at least one team failing to score.
View BTTS statisticsOver/Under - goals analysis
Both teams have averaged 2.4 goals scored per match over their last 5 games, while Hapoel conceded 2.4 goals per game during that period, compared with 1.4 for Maccabi. Their attacking potential is reflected in average xG figures of 2.11 for the home side and 2.05 for the away side. Over 2.5 goals landed in 80% of Hapoel’s and 100% of Maccabi’s last 5 matches, although these runs do not guarantee similarly high scoring in the next game. The strongest pick is Over 1.5 goals: both teams cleared this line in every match considered, and the projected total of 3.8 goals provides a clear margin above the two-goal threshold.
View Over/Under statisticsHT/FT - half-time and full-time scenario
The strongest signal is for Maccabi Haifa to lead at the break and hold their advantage through to the end of the match. Hapoel Katamon were trailing at half-time in 4 of their last 5 matches, conceding an average of 1.2 goals in the first half, while Maccabi were ahead after 45 minutes in 2 of 5 matches and had conceded an average of 0.6 goals by then. The visitors have won 4 of their last 5 matches, compared with 2 of 5 for the hosts; Maccabi have also averaged 1.8 goals after half-time, versus 1.6 for Hapoel. However, the risk for this HT/FT pick is heightened by the fact that Hapoel have won all 3 home matches in the available data and have an xG of 2.11 at home, slightly higher than Maccabi’s 2.05 away. Despite this counterargument, the hosts’ frequent first-half concessions and the visitors’ stronger recent form point towards a 2/2 scenario.
