Beitar Jerusalem is gearing up for a highly anticipated match against Maccabi Tel Aviv on Monday at Teddy Stadium, with all tickets already sold out, ensuring a full house. The demand from fans in Jerusalem has been immense, leading to ticket prices soaring on social media, with some being resold for as much as 1,000 shekels. Police are aware of the situation and are monitoring ticket scalpers.
Following a challenging start with two losses, Beitar Jerusalem has achieved four consecutive victories, boosting morale. However, coach Almog Cohen recognizes the upcoming game against Maccabi Tel Aviv as a significant test for both himself and his players, distinguishing it from previous matches against less formidable opponents. The team's confidence is bolstered by the return of Nana Antwi from injury, the integration of Ori Azu, and the strong form of key players like Omer Atzili, Yarden Shua, and Boris Ine.
Professionally, Cohen is deliberating over the left-back position, considering Gil Cohen or Timothy Musi. Bryan Carvallí is set to return from suspension and will play at center-back alongside Luca Gedrani. Beitar Jerusalem has initiated discussions with the representatives of Colombian defender Bryan Carvallí regarding a new contract, aiming to finalize it during the upcoming international break. Jonbosco Calo is expected to be the foreign player left out of the squad.
Meanwhile, Ravid Abergil, who has not been a regular starter, plans to seek a loan move in January to a National League team competing at the top of the table. Abergil had received offers before the summer transfer window closed but opted to make a considered decision rather than one under pressure.
