19:30 Hapoel Akko – Ironi Kiryat Shmona

The hosts have big problems in the Israeli Premier League, where Hapoel Ironi Acre F.C. is on the last spot in the standings, with only thirteen points after seventeen rounds (2-7-8 16-28) and still without a single victory at “Acre Municipal Stadium” this season (0-4-4 7-14).

That’s why, I think, that State Cup is not a priority for the home team and my feeling is strengthened by the fact, that the hosts are without some big achievements in this tournament.

Hapoel Ironi Kiryat Shmona F.C. is among the best-performing teams in Israel this season (1st position in the Israeli Premier League / 11-5-1 30-13) and I doubt, that the Whites will make mistake in the second round of this tournament, especially against this opponent.
