Beitar Jerusalem is preparing for a high-stakes match against Maccabi Tel Aviv on Monday at Teddy Stadium, with all tickets sold out and the home stadium expected to be full. The demand from fans has led to extreme ticket prices on social media, with some tickets being resold for as much as 1,000 shekels. Police are aware of the situation and are monitoring ticket scalpers.
The team's recent success, including four consecutive wins after an initial two losses, has boosted morale. However, coach Almog Cohen recognizes the upcoming game as a significant test for both himself and his players, especially after weaker performances against teams like Hapoel Ramat Gan and Bnei Sakhnin. The return of Nana Antwi from injury, Ori Azu's integration into the team, and the strong form of key players such as Omer Atzili, Yarden Shua, and Boris Ine are contributing to the team's confidence.
Professionally, Cohen is considering his lineup options, particularly at left-back, where he is choosing between Gil Cohen and Timozi Muzi.
Jonbusko Calo is expected to be the foreign player who will not be dressed for the match. 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 chose to make a considered decision rather than one under pressure.
