Maccabi Haifa to win this second leg

Even though Kairat are quite strong in the home matches with four consecutive victories, the level of competition in the Champions League is on a different scale. In the first leg, Maccabi Haifa were able to dominate the stats with more than 60% possession. They might be playing away from home, but Barak Bakhar’s men are in a good spot.
