Beitar Jerusalem v Maccabi Tel Aviv prediction

What to expect

We expect about 1.4 goals from Beitar Jerusalem and 1.9 from Maccabi Tel Aviv, so Maccabi Tel Aviv come out ahead by a nose. Put together, that is around 3.4 goals in the game, and a match we expect to open up at both ends.

Beitar Jerusalem come into this on three straight wins. Recent results are only ever part of the story, but they are worth knowing before kick-off.

Our pick: Maccabi Tel Aviv or Draw. This covers Maccabi Tel Aviv or the draw, trading a shorter price for a wider safety net. A sensible way to back the lean without needing the exact result.

We put the chance of that landing at about 72 out of 100. The price on offer is 1.34, which works out at about 75 out of 100. The two sit close together, so this is a lean rather than a standout price.
