- Shua and Cohen have missed team training since last week and are unlikely to play.

Beitar Jerusalem returned to training on Sunday after a weekend break, preparing intensively for their upcoming Saturday match against Maccabi Netanya. Coach Almog Cohen scheduled a demanding training regimen, including two sessions on Sunday and Monday, to get the team match-ready. However, key players Jordan Shua and Jordan Cohen did not participate in training and remain doubtful for the game due to injuries. Captain Jordan Shua is dealing with pain in his ankle and calf muscle, while defender Jordan Cohen is sidelined with a knee injury. Both have missed team training since last week.
On a more positive note, striker Shon Weisman resumed partial training after missing recent matches, including two games against Austria Vienna and a Conference League qualifier against AEK Larnaca. Weisman's return is seen as encouraging for the Jerusalem side, with optimism he will be fit to play against Netanya. Shua has already missed two games this season, and Cohen has been absent from recent fixtures as well. Weisman's last appearance was a 56-minute stint in the first leg against Austria Vienna, while Shua and Cohen's last matches were earlier in the European campaign. The team aims to overcome these injury setbacks as they prepare for the league encounter with Maccabi Netanya.
