The first meeting of the rivals will take place on August 22 in Hungary at the Haladas Sports Complex in Szombathely, where Maccabi Tel Aviv will host Backa Topola. The modest guests tried their hand at the group stage of the Europa League last season, but without success. Now the Serbs intend to return with at least some experience behind them and improve their results. But this will not be easy. Will the visiting club be able to resist the Israelis and what bets will play? The answer is in our betting tip

Command Analysis

Maccabi Tel Aviv

Current form

The Tel Aviv team had a great season, winning the championship with a clear advantage. The gap from the second line was 11 points. Both the attack and defense distinguished themselves, becoming the best in the league. The new championship will begin only in September, but the club is not left without game practice, taking the country's Super Cup to its piggy bank, where they beat their teammates from Petah Tikva (2:0). Among other things, they managed to reach the final of the Toto Cup. In the semi-finals, they beat Bnei Sakhnin (2:1).

The performance in the Champions League did not go well already at the stage of the quarter-finals of the qualification – they failed to beat the Romanian FCSB. In the semi-finals of the Europa League qualification they were very lucky with their opponent. Panevezys is going through a global crisis, so they could not put up any resistance, losing 1:5 on aggregate. At the beginning of the season it is noticeable that the “yellow devils” do not have any serious problems with competitors inferior in class.

TSC Backa Topola

Current form

In recent seasons, the modest Backa Topola has reached a new level and become a strong team in the Serbian championship, where they managed to outpace even Partizan. Whether the current championship will be triumphant for the team is still unknown. At least, the start is not impressive. In five rounds, there have already been two unnecessary defeats with the same score of 0:1 from far from the strongest Belgrade and Radničkov Niš. As a result, seven points and an intermediate sixth place in the tournament table.

After a fairly successful pre-season, such an unsuccessful start to the championship looks disappointing. With the current level of play, it will be problematic to compete with the team from Israel. Most likely, it would be better to go to a lower level, where the team will have more chances to show itself.

Disqualifications and injuries

The injured Kuvelich will not help Bachka-Topol.

Interesting trends for betting

Backa Topola have not won in six consecutive matches in the Europa League
The team has won with a handicap (+1.5) on the road in nine of the last 10 matches.

Tentative line-up : Ilic, Jovanovic, Djordjevic, Capan, Petrovic, Pejic, Pantovic, Banjac, Djakovac, Cirkovic, Stanic
