Hapoel Tel Aviv will play Israeli rivals Maccabi Tel Aviv at home on matchday three of the 2025/26 EuroLeague season. They enter this round in first place in the standings, while their visitors are in 19th place. Read on to find our prediction for this match.

Hapoel Tel Aviv are having a superb start to their debut in Europe’s premier club competition. They have won both of their matches and are one of only three teams with a 100% start.

Dimitrios Itoudis’s men, who are outscoring teams by 11 points on average, saw off Barcelona on matchday one and then Efes. Hapoel, who are playing their home games in Bulgaria, defeated Efes 87-81 on the road.

Maccabi have started the season in complete contrast to their domestic rivals. Oded Kattash’s men are seeking their first win after losing both of their matches.

With only one win from their last five games across all competitions, Maccabi have lost to Efes and Paris. An 85-78 loss to Efes on the road was followed by a 101-94 setback at home to Paris.

Despite this poor run of results, Maccabi will approach this game confident of a victory. This is because they have a dominant record against Hapoel and, most recently, have won eight of the last 11 meetings.
