Doxa and Olympiakos face off in the Coca-Cola Cup first round
On November 4, 2026, Doxa Katokopias and Olympiakos Nicosia are set to compete in the first round of the Coca-Cola Cup. The match is scheduled for 18:00 at the Katokopia-Epistrofi Stadium, also known as the Glavkos Kliridis stadium.
Olympiakos, currently competing in the first division, enters the match as the theoretical favorite due to its higher league status. However, the team has struggled this season, recording six draws in its first eight league matches without a win. Manager Georgios Kostis aims to use this cup fixture to secure a victory and reset the team's momentum. Conversely, Doxa Katokopias, a second-division side coached by Apostolos Terzis, approaches the game with high morale following a six-game unbeaten streak in league play. Both teams have released their starting lineups, with Olympiakos fielding players including Kyriakou, Doumas, and Lolis, while Doxa starts with Sakkas, Kyratzis, and Erotokritou among others.
This match serves as a pivotal opportunity for both clubs to advance in the tournament. While Olympiakos seeks its first win of the season, Doxa intends to leverage its home-field advantage to challenge the top-flight opposition.
