Cyprus League season continues with Sunday fixtures
The first matchday of the 88th Cyprus League by Stoiximan continues on August 30, 2026, with two key encounters. At 19:00, AEL Limassol hosts Anorthosis Famagusta at the Alphamega Stadium, with Constantinos Fellas assigned as the referee. Later at 20:00, Karmiotissa will technically host Pafos FC at the Stelios Kyriakides Stadium, a match overseen by referee Michalis Loukas.
Pafos FC enters the match following their qualification for the UEFA Conference League phase on August 27 after a grueling 120-minute contest against Dinamo City. Due to the physical toll of that match and existing suspensions for Correia, Bruno, and Mammadov, manager Ricardo Sa Pinto may rotate his starting lineup. Meanwhile, Karmiotissa, coached by Alexis Garpozis, is looking to integrate 21 new players into their squad while aiming to avoid relegation struggles.
These fixtures follow the opening results of the season, which included a 3-0 victory for ALS Omonia 29th May over Krasava E.N.Y., a 3-3 draw between Olympiakos Nicosia and Nea Salamina, a 3-1 win for AEK Larnaca against APOEL, and a 2-2 draw in the Limassol derby between Aris and Apollon. The first matchday concludes on August 31 with Omonia Nicosia facing Omonia Aradippou.
