The 2023–24 Toto Cup Al was the 39th season of the football tournament in Israel since its introduction and the 17th tournament involving Israeli Premier League clubs only.

Maccabi Netanya were the defending champions but could only finish in the 7th place.[1]

Format

[edit]

The four clubs playing in the UEFA competitions (Maccabi Haifa, Hapoel Be'er Sheva, Maccabi Tel Aviv and Beitar Jerusalem) did not take part in the group stage, while the remaining ten clubs were divided into two groups of five, at the end of the group stage each of the group winners will qualify to the semi-finals. Maccabi Haifa and Beitar Jerusalem played in the 2023 Israel Super Cup match for a place in one of the semi-finals (meeting the group winner with the least points accumulated), while Hapoel Be'er Sheva and Maccabi Tel Aviv played for a place in the other semi-final (meeting the group winner with the most points accumulated). All clubs will participate in classification play-offs to determine their final positions.[2]

Group stage

[edit]

Groups were allocated according to geographic distribution of the clubs, with the northern clubs allocated to Group A, and the southern clubs allocated to Group B. Each club will play the other clubs once.

The matches have started on 29 July 2023.
