Itamar Shabiru (Shahar Gross)
The 14th round of the Premier League continues at this time with a heated bottom battle between the bottom of the table, Ironi Kiryat Shmona, which hosts the newcomer and the team that is only one place above it, Sektia Nes Ziona, for a meeting that can greatly affect the rest of the season for both teams.
Kiryat Shmona comes to the meeting with terrible momentum. Despite the convincing victory over Beit Jerusalem in the Toto Cup, Menachem Koretsky’s men were eliminated from the cup after a home loss to Maccabi Netanya on penalties and are still without a league win since August and are in last place in the table.
On the other hand, Nir Berkovich’s apprentices come to compete with the aim of continuing the streak in the league as well. In the last game, the newcomer defeated Hapoel Acre from the National League 2:3 in the eighth round of the State Cup, so Bens Ziona wants to leverage the good energy for tonight’s game as well, which can bring the oranges over the red line.
In terms of the meetings between the two teams, history shows a clear preference for the host. The two clubs have met seven times in the past, with Kiryat Shmona winning in four meetings, Nes Ziona in only two meetings and one meeting ended without a decision.
