The seventh round of the National League opens at this time when Maccabi Petach Tikva host Hapoel Afula in a top-flight match. Shai Berda’s students look great and come after a big victory in the city’s prestigious derby, on the other hand, the team from the capital of the valley will try to recover against the leader. Ramat Hasharon hosts Hapoel Acre and will try to continue the great ability from the beginning of the season. Bnei Yehuda is looking for a victory over Kfar Qasim when for them they are still without a league victory. Rishon Lezion meets Ahi Nazareth and Umm El Faham hosts Adumim Ashdod for a bottom battle.

Hapoel Afula – Maccabi Petah Tikva 0:0

Shay Breda’s apprentices started the season in a wonderful way with five wins and one loss on their record and they lead the league table. After 2:2 against Rishon Lezion, the Malabasim recorded two consecutive victories when they beat Hapoel Ramat Gan 0:2 in the fifth round and in the last round they defeated Hapoel Petah Tikva 4:0 in the city’s prestigious derby. On the other hand, Hapoel Afula has not a bad start to the season when it is placed in fifth place. Shahar Wizenger’s apprentices stumbled in the previous round against Adumim Ashdod after already leading 0:1 and finally losing 2:1, will they be able to recover against the leader?

Hapoel Ramat Hasharon – Hapoel Acre 0:0

Perhaps the surprising team of the league. The Blues from Sharon have had an excellent start to the season as far as they are concerned, as they are in third place in the table next to Hapoel Petah Tikva. In the last two rounds, Almog Aviv’s team won easily against the Galilee teams, 0:2 over Nof HaGalil and in the last round 0:2 over Ahi Nazareth. Now they host Hapoel Acre to try to take a third consecutive win and stay strong at the top of the league. On the other hand, the northerners can be very satisfied with the last round when they showed a lot of character and came back from a 2:0 deficit to a great 2:4 victory over Maccabi Jaffa. Alon Ziv’s team is in the middle of the table in eighth place and they know that a victory will bring them closer to the top and away from the crowded bottom.

Bnei Yehuda – Kfar Kasem 0:0

Uri Gutman’s team with another bad start to the season for them. Precisely after the victory over Hapoel Petah Tikva, it seemed that the Oranges could embark on a new path, in the last two rounds they were defeated 3:0 by Afula and finished 1:1 with Umm Al Fahem. The team from the HaTikva neighborhood knows that they must win in order to try and stay in the picture. On the other side, stands the only team still without a win in the league. Haim Sirotkin’s apprentices simply do not manage to win even when they dominate the game and reach many situations. In the previous round, they were close to victory again when they returned to the game against Hapoel Kfar Saba, but in the end they recorded another loss 3:2. The team from the sector knows that it must take the first three points for the season in order not to be on the safe road to the First League.

Rishon LeZion – Achi Nazareth 0:0

The team is celebrating with a good start to the season for them with two wins, two draws and two losses on their balance sheet and they are in sixth place in the table. After an excellent streak for them with a 0:2 win in the fourth round over Adumim Ashdod, 2:2 against strong Maccabi Petah Tikva and a 0:2 victory over Tiberias, Amir Nussbaum’s apprentices stumbled when they lost 2:1 to Naf HaGilil and will try to recover against the second team from the Galilee. Brother Nazareth with a lukewarm start to the season when after the 3:2 loss in the Galilee derby in the fourth round, a recovery in a 0:2 victory over Acre and a 2:0 loss in the round to Ramat Hasharon they will try to win and stabilize in the league.

Umm Al Fahem – Adumim Ashdod 0:0

The team from the sector didn’t lose in the last two rounds, but they didn’t win either when they finished 2:2 with Hapoel Kfar Saba and 1:1 with Bnei Yehuda. The apprentices of the new coach Adham Hadiya will try to start a new way after the exchange of coaches and try to take a first victory in the era of ex Benny Raina. On the other hand, the Reds from the port city are indeed in last place in the league, but this is mainly because of the punishment they received of reducing points. David Rabivo’s apprentices recovered from the defeat to Hapoel Petah Tikva 4:0 in the previous round, beat Hapoel Afula 1:2 and will try to score another victory in the bottom battle.
