The 2015 Israel Super Cup was the 20th Israel Super Cup (25th, including unofficial matches, as the competition wasn't played within the Israel Football Association in its first 5 editions, until 1969), an annual Israel football match played between the winners of the previous season's Top Division and Israel State Cup. This was the first time since 1990 that the match was staged, after a planned resumption of the cup was cancelled in 2014.[1]
