Beitar Jerusalem
WLLWLL
Following on from tasting defeat last time out to Maccabi Netanya in Ligat HaAl action, Beitar Jerusalem and their travelling fans will hope for a better result here.
Heriberto Tavares (18') and Maxim Plakushchenko (30', 39') scored for Maccabi Netanya.
The stats don’t lie, and Beitar Jerusalem have been scored against in 5 of their last 6 games, seeing opposing sides hit 10 goals overall. In defence, Beitar Jerusalem certainly have room for improvement. That sort of trend won’t necessarily be carried forward here, of course.
Going into this contest, Beitar Jerusalem have not registered a win against Hapoel Haifa in away games against them for the last 6 league games. Not good at all.
