Aris faces Anorthosis in Cypriot league eighth round
Aris Limassol is set to host Anorthosis Famagusta at the Alphamega Stadium on Sunday, November 3, 2026, at 18:00, as part of the eighth round of the Cyprus League. Aris currently sits in sixth place with 12 points and enters the match following a 3-1 victory against AEL, seeking to maintain its momentum under manager Aliaksandr Radzkov. For this match, Aris will be without Correia, while players Verton and Badelj return to the squad.
Anorthosis arrives in Limassol with renewed morale following a 2-0 win over Omonia Aradippou, which marked the successful debut of their new coach, Barak Itzhaki. The team is currently struggling with away performances, having lost all four previous away matches this season with an aggregate score of 1-9. Coach Itzhaki, who has been implementing a new tactical philosophy focusing on high pressing, faces a selection dilemma regarding whether to rotate his winning lineup. Defender Bergstrom remains unavailable due to an Achilles injury, while Satin and van der Kaap have returned to training.
Both clubs requested a schedule change to 18:00 to encourage higher spectator attendance. This fixture represents a significant test for both teams, as Aris aims to climb closer to the top four while Anorthosis seeks its first away points of the season to confirm its recovery.
