Maccabi Tel Aviv vs Hamrun Prediction and Match Preview

Maccabi Tel Aviv vs Hamrun Preview

Maccabi Tel Aviv head into this clash looking to complete the job they started in the first leg. The Israeli side came from behind to secure a 2-1 win, thanks to Roy Revivo’s 79th-minute equalizer and Elad Madmon’s dramatic injury-time winner. That late turnaround puts them in a strong position to secure progression.

However, Maccabi will be wary of their recent inconsistency at home, having lost their last two competitive matches on their own turf. Even a narrow victory would be enough to book their place in the league phase, but they will aim to do so with authority.

Hamrun, meanwhile, face a tough challenge as they look to overturn the first-leg deficit. They have lost four of their last five European matches and each of their last three. In the reverse fixture, Hamrun took an early lead but were unable to withstand Maccabi’s second-half pressure.

The Maltese side has also struggled on the road in Europe, losing their last two away matches without finding the net. They will not only need to win in regulation time but also manage the tie well to keep their hopes of qualification alive.

Who Will Win The Match Between Maccabi Tel Aviv and Hamrun?

We expect Maccabi Tel Aviv to win because Hamrun lost five of their last six matches while Maccabi Tel Aviv were dominant in the first leg tie. We expect them to be dominant in the return leg again, especially with home advantage and stronger squad depth on their side.

Will Both Teams Score?

We do not expect both teams to score because Hamrun failed to score in three of their last four European matches and in three of their last four away games. Their lack of attacking threat against disciplined defenses further reduces the likelihood of scoring.

How Many Goals Can Be Expected?

We anticipate under 2.5 goals because Maccabi Tel Aviv’s last four games averaged 2.2 goals per game or fewer, while Hamrun’s last four away matches averaged just 1.5 goals per game.

Maccabi Tel Aviv vs Hamrun Prediction

Maccabi Tel Aviv are tipped to win this match, having demonstrated control in the first leg and facing a Hamrun side that has been in poor form, losing five of their last six games. With home advantage and an aggregate lead, Maccabi should have enough to see out the tie and book their place in the league phase.

Both teams are not expected to score, given Hamrun’s recent struggles in front of goal, especially away from home in European competition. A low-scoring match is anticipated, with under 2.5 goals likely, as Maccabi may opt for a measured approach to protect their advantage and avoid unnecessary risks.
