At this time, Hapoel Beer Sheva hosts Betar Jerusalem at Tutu Turner Stadium, for a game in the 14th round of the Premier League. Both teams come together with the same number of points, and Bachar's team advance to Roni Levy thanks to a better goal difference.
In the previous round, the teams split in a 0: 0 draw at Teddy Stadium in the first league round. Beersheba faced a succession of two painful home losses, 2: 1 to Bnei Yehuda, and 2: 0 to Maccabi Haifa. The guest also lost points in the previous cycle after finishing in a 2: 2 draw in Ashdod.
Both teams want to capitalize on the loss of points from Maccabi Tel Aviv and Maccabi Haifa that failed to win this week. If one is to win, it will narrow the gap from second place to just five points, and the loser will keep away from the top of the table.
Before the game, a particularly exciting event was recorded - four Wisla Krakow fans were flying to Israel specifically and arriving at the stadium tonight. They got to meet Melixon, who was excited and thanked them for the gesture.
