Beitar Jerusalem Adjusts Lineup to Overcome Austria Vienna in Conference League Playoff
Beitar Jerusalem will face Austria Vienna on Thursday at 21:30 in the third qualifying round of the UEFA Conference League, seeking to overturn a 2-1 first-leg defeat. Coach Almog Cohen plans to maintain a high-pressing, attacking style, emphasizing discipline and aggression. Luka Gadrani returns to the starting lineup, partnering with Brian Crabali to hold a high defensive line and counter Austria Vienna's attacks with their speed.
Jordan Shua is expected to lead the attack, replacing the not fully fit Sean Weisman with Junibusco Kalu on the left wing to strengthen the offense and support Yarden Cohen on the flank. Cohen expressed confidence in his team's ability to win even on the opponent's home ground. Hundreds of Beitar Jerusalem fans are expected to attend, despite potential pro-Palestinian protests near the stadium that could cause disturbances.
The projected lineup includes Miguel Silva in goal; defenders Nana Antwi, Brian Crabali, Luka Gadrani, and Yarden Cohen; midfielders Boris Ino, Daniel Vorko, and Noam Motta; and forwards Omer Atzili, Junibusco Kalu, and Jordan Shua. The match is crucial for Beitar Jerusalem to secure a spot in the playoff round of the Conference League.
