Maccabi Tel Aviv on Saturday won one of the biggest championships in the history of Israeli football, winning the title thanks to a 1-0 win over Maccabi Haifa.

It is the 22nd record championship for yellow and blue and the 18th since the creation of the state of Israel.

If Tel Aviv does not experience an extraordinary fall, it will end the season with the biggest points difference won by the title of Israeli football history – the current record between first and second place is 16 points , while Maccabi (72 points) now holds a 27-point lead over Hapoel Beersheba (45 points).

The total number of points for a Premier League campaign is 95 points, achieved by Maccabi Haifa in the 1993/94 season. If the Maccabi Tel Aviv (22 wins, six draws and no losses) wins the remaining eight matches, it will reach 96 points in 36 games and not 39 as Haifa.

The last defeat of Maccabi Tel Aviv took place on August 23, 2018 against Norway's Sarpsborg. The last defeat in yellow and blue took place almost a year ago, April 16, 2018, against Beitar Jerusalem.

This season, Maccabi Tel Aviv has defeated at least once every team in the league, but only two teams managed to not lose twice to Maccabi Tel Aviv: Hapoel Tel Aviv and Bnei Sakhnin.

Vladimir Ivic is the 14th coach since the creation of the state of Israel that drove the Maccabi Tel Aviv to a championship, preceded by only three foreign coaches – Oscar Garcia, Paulo Sousa and Pako Ayestaran.
