Maccabi Tel Aviv ‘Schahar’ have a tough Youth Cup Quarter Final Cup tie against Maccabi Haifa on Tuesday (Ketzef, 14:00).
After advancing past Maccabi Neve Sha’anan and Hapoel Be’ersheva in the earlier rounds, Claudio Braga’s side who are the current Cup holders face the Haifaites that knocked out Hapoel Marmorek and Hapoel Ramat Gan. This will be the third encounter between the two sides this season as the first match which Maccabi hosted at Ness Ziona ended in a 2-2 draw. The reverse fixture at Haifa resulted with a 2-0 victory for the hosts that currently lead the table but will aim to avoid a Quarter Final exit similar to the one they suffered last season.
