Apollon hosts APOEL in the fourth round of the Cyprus League

Apollon Limassol hosts APOEL Nicosia at the Alphamega Stadium on September 19, 2026, at 19:00, as part of the fourth round of the Cyprus League by Stoiximan. The match is highly anticipated as both teams seek to return to winning ways following recent setbacks. Apollon, managed by Hernan Losada, comes off a 0-0 draw against Omonia, while APOEL, led by Nikos Papadopoulos, aims to recover from a 2-1 defeat against Nea Salamina. Apollon enters the fixture with significant injury concerns, including the absence of Spoljaric, Gaspar, Liubic, Brown, and Andreou. Conversely, APOEL sees the return of Dalsio and Laifis but remains without Markinios, Carillo, Mancini, Pieros, and Kattirtzis.

The tournament has already seen two matches played on September 18, where AEL defeated Pafos FC 2-0 and AEK Larnaca beat Omonia 29M 2-1. These results have placed AEL and AEK at the top of the table with 9 points each. The current matchday concludes on September 20 with three additional games before the league enters a two-week break for international duties, with play set to resume on October 9. APOEL historically struggles at the Alphamega Stadium, having never secured a victory there against Apollon in previous encounters.
