Match Preview
Bnei Sakhnin will host Hapoel Haifa at Doha Stadium on Saturday, 13 September, in what promises to be a competitive encounter in the Ligat ha'Al. Both teams have shown mixed form in their last five matches, with Sakhnin recording two wins, a draw, and two losses, while Haifa has managed two wins, two draws, and one loss. This inconsistency suggests that both sides will be eager to secure points to improve their standings.
Historically, the head-to-head record favours Hapoel Haifa, who have won five of the last ten encounters, while Sakhnin has managed just two victories. Notably, the majority of these matches have seen goals, with seven of the last ten featuring over 2.5 goals and nine matches witnessing both teams scoring. Given the attacking capabilities of both sides, particularly Sakhnin at home, fans can expect an open game that could easily see multiple goals and both teams finding the net. This match could be pivotal for both teams as they look to establish momentum early in the season.
