Beitar Jerusalem is preparing for their upcoming match against Hapoel Petah Tikva on Sunday, aiming to return to winning ways after a goalless draw against Maccabi Tel Aviv. Coach Almog Cohen, who gave his players a day off on Wednesday, addressed the team, expressing his dissatisfaction with not winning while praising their effort and discipline. "We are Beitar, and we always strive to win," Cohen told his players.
Cohen is expected to make a significant change to the starting lineup, likely involving a foreign player rotation. Beitar can only register seven foreign players for the match to receive a grant, meaning one of the eight currently on the roster will be excluded. Eugene Ansah, who was left out of the squad against Maccabi Tel Aviv, is set to return to the starting eleven, with another foreign player making way.
Cohen had previously described Ansah's exclusion as the most difficult decision he had made since becoming coach. The team will begin preparations for the challenging encounter on Thursday. Cohen holds Hapoel Petah Tikva in high regard, acknowledging the pressure on Omer Peretz's team to secure points.
