Beitar Jerusalem form and stats

With 3 Ligat ha'Al wins, 4 draws and 6 defeats from their home games, Beitar Jerusalem, who have the most conceded goals (19) at home in Ligat ha'Al, are certainly not brimming with confidence.

No payout for Jerusalem in their previous match, an away game at Hapoel Haifa that ended in defeat 1-3. A 0-0 draw away before that, with Hapoel Tel Aviv the opponent.
