Maccabi Tel Aviv vs Maccabi Haifa Prediction & Betting Tips (8 April)

It would be fair to say that Maccabi Haifa have been struggling on their top-flight travels of late, with their current run of 10 consecutive defeats forming part of a 13-match winless sequence. Maccabi Tel Aviv, meanwhile, have enjoyed 13 wins in 16 home games at this level of late, plus confidence should be high after starting the season with a victory.

Over the course of their last 29 away games in the Ligat ha'Al, Maccabi Haifa have not been involved in a single goalless draw, so the outfit cannot be accused of a lack of consistency on this front. None of the previous 16 second-tier fixtures involving Maccabi Tel Aviv have finished scoreless either, so the net appears certain to bulge at some point here.

The net tends to bulge at both ends when Maccabi Haifa come calling in the Ligat ha'Al, with this being the case in 14 of their most recent 18 away matches, including in 1-1 and 2-2 draws against these opponents last season. Speaking of Maccabi Tel Aviv, 16 of their previous 19 top-flight home fixtures have also seen neither goalkeeper emerge with a clean sheet.
