A significant amount of time has passed since the last match between these teams, so reviewing their head-to-head history will not be helpful in making a betting decision..

Let's try to understand and analyze which team is stronger.

Hapoel Afula: It is in sixteenth place in the standings out of 16. Coach Janah Йосси continues working with the team, which is in poor form.
The team fails to strike a balance between defense and attack, which is why they concede quite a lot. A bit about the previously played games:
Last time The team played an away match against the club from the city of Акко - Хапоэль Умм-аль-Фахм год назад. This match ended in a draw, as the sides could not determine the stronger team.

It was not the best performance for this team..
