Prediction: 2-0
RFS
Maccabi Tel Aviv will be aiming to build on a 3-1 win over Besiktas when they take on RFS in the Europa League round 6. The Yellows desperately needed a win against the Turkish outfit and they managed to get one, with the team putting an end to their four-game losing run. A man to keep an eye on in the home team will be Brazil winger Weslley Patati, who has found his goal-scoring touch of late. Maccabi head coach Zarko Lazetic has no fresh injury worries ahead of Thursday’s clash.
The Latvians, on the other hand, have yet to record a win in the Europa League this term. As Maccabi Tel Aviv are eager to move closer to the playoffs berth, we predict that the visitors are going to return to Riga empty-handed. RFS midfielder Adam Markhiev has overcome his injury, while defender Herdi Prenga remains in the recovery room.
Highlighted Team (Maccabi Tel Aviv):
Maccabi Tel Aviv are the oldest and probably the biggest clubs in Israel. The club was founded in 1906 and they have been playing an important role in the Israeli League ever since. In 2015 Maccabi won their 21st trophy in the national championship and the same season they clinched their 23rd Israeli Cup title.
The club’s fiercest rivals are Hapoel Tel-Aviv and they welcome their opponents at Netanya Stadium. The capacity of the venue is 13 610. The likes of Beitar Jerusalem Hapoel Be’er Sheva and Maccabi Haifa are considered Maccabi Tel Aviv’s bitter rivals as well. In 1969 the club won the AFC Champions League and they repeated the success two years later, beating Aliyat Al-Shorta in the final.
The likes of Jordi Cruyff, Paulo Sousa, Rade Prica, Moanes Dabour and Vincent Enyeama are the high-profile footballers who were part of the team in the past. The colour of Maccabi’s home kit is yellow and blue.
