Maccabi Tel Aviv's Under-19s will open their 2014/15 league season at home against Hapoel Rishon Lezion. The Tel Aviv derby is in matchweek 4
The national Under-19 Premier League will get underway in just under two months but the fixture schedule is already a matter of record. Maccabi Tel Aviv "Shachar" will open their 2014/15 league season at home on the 13th of September against Hapoel Rishon Lezion. In matchweek 4 the Under-19s will head off mid-week to face municipal rivals Hapoel Tel Aviv in the season's first Tel Aviv derby. Head coach Ziv Arie's charges will face both Under-19 Premier League new boys, Hapoel Petach Tikva and Section Nes Tziona, later in the season. Section Nes Tziona, who were promoted to the top tier for the first time in club history, will visit Maccabi's Kiryat Shalom training ground in matchweek 10. Hapoel Petach Tikva will host "Shachar" in matchweek 13, the first match of the new year. A week earlier Maccabi's Under-19s will play the first "match of the season" at home against Maccabi Haifa. In the past four seasons these two clubs have shared the title honours in the Under-19 Premier League, with "Shachar" finishing a close second last season, just two points shy of champions Maccabi Haifa. The first round of fifteen matches will conclude with an away tie against Beitar Tubruk, who will arrive at Kiryat Shalom for the season's final matchweek on the 16th of May 2015.
