The 2012–13 season was Beitar Jerusalem's 44th season in the Israeli Premier League. Beitar started the season with two victories vs its enemy Hapoel Tel Aviv. After the victory vs Hapoel in Bloomfield (0:2),

Chairman Arcadi Gaydamak decided to bring two Muslim-Russian players Zaur Sadayev and Dzhabrail Kadiyev from Terek Grozny FC. The fanatic fans of Beitar are against Arabs and Muslims because the bloody history between Israel and the Muslims specially in Jerusalem. They don't get it that Muslims playing in Beitar and boycott Beitar games. The team failed without the push of the fans and lost 8 of 14 games.

From the top, Beitar rolled down to the survivor games in the bottom playoff and promise more season in the league just in the last fixture.
