Bnei Yehuda vs Kiryat Shmona tips and predictions

Decent tussle in Leumit League

When Bnei Yehuda host Kiryat Shmona it should be a decent little tussle. At the prices available the home side is favoured to get the job done.

Simply looking at the two sides' results, the hosts have secured 10 wins from 16 matches. Conversely the visitors have been defeated in 3 of their last 7 matches home and away. Obviously they've been up against different opposition but that doesn't look like the record of a team that has prepared correctly for this.

This home squad is in some form on their own soil. Bnei Yehuda scored three or more goals in 8 of their recent 16 home matches.

The attacking form shown by Kiryat Shmona has been short of quality. They netted an average of just 0.7 goals in their last 9 matches. It is possible this is rendered immaterial. But they will need to improve their finishing if they are to get the job done. Despite these stats suggesting they are struggling to find form, if Kiryat Shmona come out motivated, then all bets are off.

Bnei Yehuda have won 6 of the last 10 fixtures between these sides before this one.

The clash does have an anything could happen feel about it though. So don't rule out the match ending in parity. The sportsbooks are expecting goals at both ends of the park as they can both be dangerous in front of goal. This preview is all about value though and with the odds-against price on BTTS No, that looks like a good way to extract some value this time around. As far as the goal line is concerned, it's no more than a single goal picked as the best play given the latest prices.
