This impressive run includes four consecutive victories, most recently a dominant 4-1 win over Hapoel Jerusalem at Teddy Stadium on Monday.

This season's performance, particularly the 15 points from 18, matches their record from the 2022-2023 championship season under Barak Bakhar.

Maccabi Haifa has scored 16 goals in their first six matches, the highest tally for the club in the first six games of any season in the 2000s, and the best offensive start since the 1998-1999 season.
Despite the attacking prowess, the team has shown defensive struggles early in the season. Their only significant setback so far was a 3-1 loss to Maccabi Tel Aviv. Looking ahead, Maccabi Haifa faces a challenging schedule starting from the eighth matchday, with games against Hapoel Be'er Sheva, Hapoel Tel Aviv, Maccabi Netanya, Bnei Sakhnin, Beitar Jerusalem, and Hapoel Haifa.
