Apollon prepares for decisive Conference League rematch against Brann

Apollon Limassol is finalizing its preparations for the Conference League third qualifying round second leg against the Norwegian side Brann, scheduled for August 11 at 20:00 at the Alphamega Stadium. Club spokesperson Fanourios Konstantinou stated that the team is approaching the match as a 0-0 encounter, despite their advantage from the first leg. Head coach Hernan Losada emphasized the importance of defensive concentration and the goal of scoring early to exert pressure on the visitors.

Regarding the squad, Konstantinou noted that player Leonidas Konomis's availability will be confirmed following the final training session. While most players are available, Asensao is ruled out, and defender Goldson requires more time for full recovery. The club management has launched a campaign to encourage fan attendance, with over 6,500 tickets already sold and expectations that attendance will surpass 8,000.

During a pre-match press conference, both coach Losada and player Gaetan Weissbeck expressed confidence in the team's readiness. The club maintains a clear tactical plan centered on established defensive and offensive principles to facilitate the integration of new players and secure progression into the next round.
