Match description
I predict a home win (1). Ironi Kiryat Shmona shows better form and a higher league position: they sit 9th, scored 8 goals in their last 5 matches, won 3 times and average 2 points per game, while Ashdod are 12th and have scored only 2 goals in their last five matches, with no wins and an average of 0.2 points per game. At home the hosts score 1.5 goals per game, have 4.81 shots on target and xG 1.64, whereas Ashdod away average 0.94 goals, 3.75 shots on target and xG 1.37; the hosts’ shot conversion is about 11% versus 8% for the visitors. Defensively the hosts concede 1.25 goals per home match, Ashdod 1.5 goals away; in the last 5 fixtures Ironi conceded 3 goals and Ashdod 8, which indicates a defensive edge for the home side. Additionally, the hosts fail to score in only 13% of home games versus 44% of Ashdod’s away matches, and the home win rate is 44% versus 19% for the visitors on the road; for these reasons I assess the probabilities as: home 65%, draw 20%, away 15%.
