20:00 Maccabi Tel-Aviv – Hapoel Ashkelon FC

Maccabi Tel Aviv F.C. is the team with the biggest potential in the Israeli football and like in the previous round (Beitar Tel Aviv Ramla F.C. – Maccabi Tel Aviv F.C. 1-4 on 14.01.2015), I doubt, that the Yellow-Blues will face big problems to reach the next stage of the tournament.

Hapoel Ashkelon F.C., on the other hand, is a team from the lower divisions, with good results in Liga Alef – South (14-3-0 35-8), but far from the potential of Maccabi Tel Aviv F.C.

In the matter of fact, Hapoel Ashkelon F.C. managed to eliminate good team like Beitar Jerusalem F.C. in the previous round (Hapoel Ashkelon F.C. – Beitar Jerusalem F.C. 3-3/3-1 AP on 15.01.2015), but it happened at “Sala Stadium”, while now the Blues will play away from home and against the best team in Israel.
