Aris Limassol prepares to host Anorthosis in crucial league match
Aris Limassol is set to host Anorthosis Famagusta this Sunday in a Cyprus league match, with the game time rescheduled to 18:00 to encourage better fan attendance. Aris currently sits in 6th place with 12 points, four behind the league leaders, and is looking to build on their strong recent performance against AEL. Coach Artyom Radkov will have players Verton and Badeli available for the squad, though Correia remains sidelined.
Anorthosis enters the match following a morale-boosting win against Omonia Aradippou, which marked the successful debut of new manager Barak Itzhaki. The team faces significant challenges in away matches, having lost all four of their away games this season with a goal difference of 1-9. Itzhaki is focused on making the team more competitive outside of their home stadium. Both clubs are approaching the match with caution, with Aris spokesperson Kostas Papadopoulos emphasizing the need for consistency against a historic opponent despite Anorthosis's recent struggles. The match represents a significant test for Itzhaki as he seeks to stabilize his side amidst a demanding November schedule for both teams.
