2. There are many reasons for the crowd to be excited about this derby.

First, it's a big game, unfamiliar to a lot of young people who were not born in the '90s.

In addition, the very fact of returning to the Premier League of the Red Side and the fact that Derby is back - this is a celebration in itself.

This is the moment they have dreamed of for so many years at the club.

When you add to that the victory in the Toto Cup, you can understand the great desire to meet the city rival as much as possible, with an estimated 5,000 red fans in the stands.



On the part of Betar Jerusalem, the enthusiasm for the derby is a combination of strength and sadness. The team in the near future. On the other hand, the mobilization of the crowd also points to the biggest problem at the moment in the yellow and yellow club. Jerusalem can achieve something, contrary to feelings before the game against Hapoel Beer Sheva.

Come calm.

3. The data is very clear - against Hapoel Beer Sheva Betar Jerusalem sold a little more than 3,500 tickets to its fans. That says it all, the lowest amount sold in a season-opening game in Teddy since its inception. Liani, but whoever is with himself knows that in any situation Betar Jerusalem would probably go down undefeated in the end, because it simply did not have the tools to deal with a team like Hapoel Beer Sheva, which by the way arrived tired and lacking energy after being eliminated from the Conference League three days earlier.



Betar Jerusalem of the derby is not going to be a much stronger team. Degani will be absent due to the red card but what worries the club leaders much more is his injury in the national team uniform. In such a situation, whether celebrating will or not, coach Erwin Koeman will not give up on strengthening the defense;



But cereal is just the beginning.

Joshua Mahias may or may not get dressed, and in any case has not yet made one official game this season, as has Aviel Zargari who may be on the bench.

Marko Jankovic was on the Montenegro squad against Latvia but did not play and should return to the derby.

Jordan Shua and Richmond Boachi also had two more weeks to train but beyond that there is no significant reinforcement for the squad at this stage that could place another team for the meeting.

The only difference in the audience's feelings is that Hapoel Jerusalem is not like Be'er Sheva and what will determine this meeting is the influence of the audience that will push / press and who will want the points more.

Maybe he'll get dressed, and maybe not.

4. Hapoel Jerusalem comes calm.

A draw would be bad for her but very painful for Beitar Jerusalem and the surrounding air. The crowd Red expects football happy or quality this season, everybody just wants to survive and Ziv lion eight groups accordingly, such is based on compliance with tactical and make it difficult for the opponent as much as possible.



Level talent The team in yellow and yellow is several notches above its urban rival, despite the problems (players who are not playing or those who are not fit and the business is still far from connecting), with Hapoel Jerusalem players who have been running for 3-4 years and are professionally and socially connected. 50:50 and this derby very special.
