These teams last met in the 2021 World Cup Qualifiers when Israel won 2:1 and 4:1. In total, they met six times, with Israel winning four times, while one was a draw.
Regarding the number of goals, we mostly saw exciting games. In four of six h2h matches, three or more goals were scored, while both teams scored on all six occasions.
Moldova team overview
Moldova is one of the teams that have never reached any major competition throughout their history. Right now, they are ranked #154 on the FIFA World Ranking List and #50 in Europe, out of 55 teams. Even though their World Cup Qualifiers started badly with three losses in the first three rounds, there has been some progress as they secured promotion from UEFA Nations League D to C. Still, in the WC Qualifiers, even winning a couple of points is a challenge for the popular "Tricolorii".
For the upcoming games against Israel and Norway, coach Serghei Clescenco should have most of their key players available.

Israel team overview
Israel are number 75 on the FIFA World Ranking List and number 36 in Europe. Thus far, they have never reached the EURO and have had only one World Cup appearance, back in 1970. However, these qualifiers started well for the "Skyblue and Whites" as they won six points in the first three rounds and sat in second place behind Norway. Still, we have to take that with a pinch of salt because their two wins came against Estonia. In order to have some chance of finishing in the top two places, they have to win these games against the weakest teams in the group.
Just like Moldova, Israel will have most of their key players available for the upcoming games vs Moldova and Italy. Looking at the rosters, it is evident Israel have a much better squad. Israel have a total market value of 97.78 million euros, while Moldova's is only 16.38 million euros.

Prediction
Moldova are in a terrible form, having lost four in a row across the competitions with a terrible 2:12 goal difference. On the other hand, Israel are in great momentum. They won four of the last five games while beating some fantastic teams like Belgium (1:0) and Slovakia (1:0). Before that five-game stretch, they even had a 0:0 draw against one of the best national teams in the World, France.
In the previous H2H games, Israel were much better, winning four out of six games and covering the -1.5 AH spread on two occasions. Considering the previous H2H games, the difference in overall quality and a massive difference in form, we believe that Israel will secure a comfortable win over Moldavia.
3 Reasons why Israel should win and cover the -1 AH spread
- Moldova lost the last four games with a 2:12 goal difference
- Israel won four of the last five games across the competitions
- Israel won four of the previous six h2h games
