Maccabi Bnei Raina vs Hapoel Jerusalem prediction, H2H & Probable Line-ups – January 6, 2024
Maccabi Bnei Raina
Hapoel Jerusalem FC
As part of the 17th round of the Israeli Premier League, a match between Maccabi and Hapoel will take place on Monday, January 6. The game is scheduled to kick off at 19:00 Central European Time. I suggest a bet on the winner of this game.
Match Preview
Maccabi Bnei Raina has shown fairly stable results this season. The team is not very active in attack but often faces defensive issues, leading to point losses in matches against stronger opponents.
However, playing at home, Maccabi can count on the support of their fans and may utilize their strengths in attack to put up a fight against stronger visitors.
Hapoel Jerusalem is a mid-table team in the Israeli Premier League. They have not been particularly convincing in their performances and appear quite inconsistent.
After 16 matches, the team has failed to meet fans' expectations, sitting only in eighth place in the table, which will not grant them the chance to compete for European cups at the end of the first part of the season.
Match Facts
- Maccabi has lost their last four matches in the Premier League.
- Hapoel has won only one of their last nine away games.

Head-to-Head
Hapoel has not beaten Maccabi on their home ground for over two years.
Prediction
Maccabi is in poor form, and Hapoel intends to take advantage of this. My bet is on the visitors not to lose this game.
