Sabah FA are in a rough patch at the moment, having lost four of their last five matches. They have been conceding a lot of goals and struggling to find wins, which suggests they are low on confidence. Their most recent game was a 2-1 defeat against today's opponents, Hapoel Beer Sheva, in the first leg of this Champions League tie.

Hapoel Beer Sheva are also not in great form, with just one win in their last five games, but they have the advantage from that head-to-head win. The two teams are fairly evenly matched, and the away side's recent victory gives them a slight edge. Given Sabah's poor run and Beer Sheva's recent win over them, this looks like a close game that could easily end in a draw, with Beer Sheva slightly more likely to come out on top.
