Hapoel Raanana welcome Hapoel Rishon LeZion on Friday, Mar 12 at 6:00 PM in a Liga Leumit fixture that's tighter on paper than the positions suggest — just 1 point split them in the table.
Hapoel Raanana come into this fixture in good form (3W 0D 2L recently). Hapoel Rishon LeZion travel in mixed form (2W 2D 1L), which may hand the initiative to the hosts.
Despite playing at home, Hapoel Raanana face a side that has dominated this fixture historically. Hapoel Rishon LeZion have won 6 of 10 encounters, with 2 draws. Their last encounter ended in Hapoel Raanana won 2–1. These two tend to produce goals — averaging 2.8 per game in recent meetings.
Verdict: This looks an evenly matched contest. Home advantage gives Hapoel Raanana a slight edge, but Hapoel Rishon LeZion are capable of causing problems. A draw would be a fair result.
