Week 1 brings us a match on Aug 21st where Maccabi Tel Aviv and Maccabi Bnei Raina will play a match in Netanya in a clash of these two closely matched Ligat ha’Al teams. Weather on match day is looking like a cloudy but hot day with daytime temperatures of 28 degrees, which hopefuly doesnt affect the pace of the match. Maccabi Tel Aviv has not played yet this season, and neither has Maccabi Bnei Raina.
Maccabi Tel Aviv is opening up their season after finishing last season 3rd in the tables, while Maccabi Bnei Raina is starting their season on a positive note having just been promoted.
