AEL Limassol takes sole lead in Cyprus League following victory over Omonia Aradippou

AEL Limassol has moved to the top of the Cyprus League standings after securing a 2-0 victory against Omonia Aradippou during the 6th matchday. The match, held on October 18, 2026, was decided in the second half when Singh scored in the 61st minute, followed quickly by Jeffrey in the 63rd minute. This win marks AEL's fourth consecutive victory, bringing their total to 15 points and allowing them to stand alone at the top of the table after AEK Larnaca drew with Aris.

Club spokesperson Nicolas Leventis stated that the team remains focused on gradual improvement rather than looking at the standings, acknowledging that the early-season 0-6 defeat to APOEL served as a necessary wake-up call for the squad. AEL manager Hugo Martins has maintained a low profile, emphasizing the importance of winning games independently of other clubs' results. Following this result, Omonia Aradippou remains at six points, having suffered their second consecutive defeat.

Looking ahead, AEL prepares for a challenging 7th matchday fixture against Aris on October 25. The league table remains highly competitive, with AEK sitting in second place with 13 points, followed by Omonia Nicosia and Apollon Limassol at 12 points each.
