Beitar Jerusalem's last game was hosting Maccabi Bnei Raina and winning 3-1. Before that, Beitar Jerusalem played out a Ligat ha'Al draw 0-0 when visiting Maccabi Tel Aviv.

Beitar Jerusalem are certainly not overdoing their scoring at home in league matches, having created 7 goals in 7 games. 8 goals have been conceded.
