Beitar Jerusalem is preparing 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 Jerusalem fans has been immense, with some resorting to extreme measures to obtain tickets. On social media, tickets have been resold for as much as 1,000 shekels, a situation the police are aware of and are monitoring for scalping activities.

Following an initial two losses, Beitar Jerusalem has achieved four consecutive victories, boosting morale within the club. However, coach Almog Cohen recognizes that Monday's game represents a significant test, both for his players and for himself, beyond 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, Jordan Shua, and Boris Enow.

Professionally, Cohen is deliberating over the left-back position, considering Gil Cohen or Timozi Muzi. Bryan Carvallal is set to return from suspension and will play at center-back alongside Luca Gadran. The club has initiated discussions with the representatives of Colombian defender Bryan Carvallal 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 in the lineup, 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.
