① Maccabi Tel Aviv look sharp at home and should edge Hapoel Beer Sheva.

② Beer Sheva will push hard and try to silence the crowd with a fast counter.

③ An entertaining affair with goals from both sides is likely, with the hosts edging it.

① Maccabi Tel Aviv arrive as the stronger side and should control midfield despite playing away.

② Hapoel Haifa will rely on home atmosphere and counterattacks to threaten the visitors.

③ BTTS is likely and over 2.5 goals are plausible given two attacking squads.
