General match analysis
Both teams are neighbors in the table (Maccabi 14th, Hapoel 13th) and have similar season goal tallies: Maccabi 22, Hapoel 23; at home Maccabi averages 0.69 goals per game, while the visitors average 0.93 on the road. Quality of chances shown by xG: hosts have 1.09 xG at home versus 1.33 xG for the visitors away, but both sides underperform in finishing — Maccabi 0.69 goals from 1.09 xG (−0.40), Hapoel 0.93 from 1.33 xG (−0.40). Defensively Hapoel looks better: Maccabi concedes at home on average 2.31 goals with xG against 1.84 (approx. +0.47 vs xG), while Hapoel concedes 1.43 away with xG against 1.91 (approx. −0.48 vs xG) and has 29% clean sheets versus 15% for the hosts. In the short term the edge is with the hosts — in the last 5 matches Maccabi scored 5 goals, won twice and collects 1.4 points per game, whereas Hapoel scored only 1 goal in that period and averages 0.4 points per game. Considering Maccabi’s better recent form (more goals and 1.4 pts/5 matches), but also their weaker defense and the fact that the hosts fail to score in 54% of home games, I predict a narrow home win with a material risk of a draw or an away win.
View the statistical overviewBTTS - will both teams score?
Seasonal BTTS indicators favor a Both Teams To Score scenario: Maccabi has BTTS at 50%, Hapoel 64%, and the league average is 56%. Both teams concede a substantial number of goals — Maccabi have conceded 62 goals this season (1.43 per match), Hapoel 40 goals (also 1.43 per match) — and xG against stands at 1.81 for the home side and 1.91 for the visitors, suggesting opponents frequently create chances. Hapoel averages 4.0 shots on target per match versus Maccabi’s 2.57 and has seasonal xG for 1.33 vs the home side’s 1.25, so the visitors have higher scoring potential despite finishing issues (in the last 5 matches Hapoel scored only 1 goal, 0.2 per match, and have 20% BTTS in their last 5). Maccabi in the last 5 matches have scored 5 goals (1.0 per match) and conceded 7, with recent xG against of 2.11, meaning the hosts also carry significant risk of conceding despite a seasonal scoring average of 0.71. Considering Hapoel’s seasonal 64% BTTS, the league 56%, low clean sheets of 29% for both and high xG against 1.81/1.91, I recommend BTTS - Yes; I assess this at 62% vs 38% for No Goal.
View BTTS statisticsOver/Under - goals analysis
I estimate a total of approximately 3.15 goals (1.58 for the home side and 1.57 for the away side), calculated from average xG: (1.25 + 1.91)/2 = 1.58 for Maccabi and (1.33 + 1.81)/2 = 1.57 for Hapoel. Season-long metrics show Over1.5 at 64% for Maccabi and 71% for Hapoel, and Over2.5 at 43% and 50%, which indicates a high probability of at least 2 goals but a moderate chance of 3 or more. In their last 5 matches Maccabi scored 5 goals (1.0 avg) and has an attacking xG over the last 5 of 1.02 against an xG conceded of 2.11, meaning the hosts create little but concede many high-quality chances. The visitors average 4.0 shots on target with a 9% shot conversion versus 2.57 shots on target and 7% conversion for the hosts, and Maccabi have conceded 62 goals this season compared to 40 by Hapoel, which elevates the goal risk. As a result, the strongest signal is a bet on Over 1.5 (I assess probability at ~82% for Over 1.5), the 2.5 line carries a moderate probability of ~60%, and Over 3.5 is unlikely (~25%).
View Over/Under statisticsHT/FT - half-time and full-time scenario
At half-time I forecast a draw: in the last five matches home teams were level at the break in 50% of cases and away teams in 75%, and first-half scoring is low (home 0.43 goals, away 0.29, combined first-half average around 1.0). For full-time I favor a home win, because in the last five matches homes won 40% of games, away teams 0%, and homes have a better points average over the last five: 1.4 versus 0.4. Additionally, the away side concedes considerably more late goals – 7 goals in minutes 76–90 versus 4 conceded by the home team – which increases the likelihood of a home goal after the break. Despite similar xG (1.25 for homes vs 1.33 for aways) and a higher number of on-target shots for the visitors (4.0 vs 2.57), recent form and last-five statistics (homes 6 first-half goals vs 2 for away teams) support a Half-Time/Full-Time scenario of draw at the break and home win. Therefore I recommend HT/FT: draw at half-time and home win at full-time (X/1) as the strongest signal.
