Ashdod have had a mixed run lately, with a couple of wins, a draw and some losses, so they're up and down rather than truly struggling or flying. Maccabi Ahi Nazareth look the stronger side right now, having won three of their last five games, though they did lose the two before that. These two teams haven't met recently, so there's no history of high-scoring meetings to go on.

Nazareth come into this in better form and look the more settled team, so I'd lean toward them winning this one, though Ashdod at home could make it a close contest.
