The teams have met on 70 separate occasions, 58 of which were in the league, 6 in the State Cup, two in the Toto Cup and one Exhibition game in 1969 that Hapoel win. Beitar Jerusalem has been the more dominant side in the derby, with 32 wins, while Hapoel Jerusalem won 16 times. Both clubs play in Teddy Stadium, a stadium ironically named after Jerusalem's left leaning mayor at the time Teddy Kollek.
