H Be’er Sheva:
Despite not being on a trip that lived up to expectations, as evidenced by the fact that they only had 24 points in 15 matches played, Hapoel Beer Sheva comes to this trip of the return of Ligat ha’Al to occupy the 4th place in the league table, one point from Ashdod and three from Maccabi Tel Aviv. The Yossi Abukasis team has the ambition to compete for access to European competitions. In recent weeks, Hapoel Beer Sheva has managed to increase its performance, as evidenced by the fact that it has lost only one of the last nine challenges. On the last day before the break, two weeks ago, the Abukasis group drew against leader Maccabi Haifa (1-1), ending a streak of two consecutive victories, both away from home, against Bnei Yehuda (0 -2)) and Maccabi Netanya (0-1).
Hapoel Hadera :
Hapoel Hadera has been one of the worst teams in this edition of Ligat ha’Al, where they fight for maintenance. With a record of 14 points added in 15 games, the formation led by coach Sharon Mimer occupies the thirteenth and penultimate place in the league table, four points more than the “lantern” Hapoel Tel Aviv, but seven from the top- 6 of the classification. In the last match, about two weeks ago, before the interruption enacted in Ligat ha’Al, Hapoel Hadera was defeated at home by Beitar Jerusalem (0-4), having recorded the second consecutive defeat, after the defeat on the visit to the field of the leader Maccabi Haifa (1-0). The last victory was four games ago, against Maccabi Netanya (2-1, at home).
