Match announcement
APOEL Nicosia
CyprusCurrent Form
APOEL achieved an excellent result last season. The team finally reclaimed the Cyprus championship title, which they hadn't won since 2019. In a dramatic finish, the Nicosia club edged out AEK Larnaca on tiebreakers, both having the same points as APOEL. The yellow-blues started their European campaign in the Champions League but only made it to the Conference League. They could have reached the Europa League but lost in the final qualifying round on penalties to Latvian side RFS.
In the group stage, the team was expected to start with a win but conceded in injury time against Shamrock Rovers (1-1). The opponent finished the match with ten men, yet the Cypriots still missed out on victory. In the second round, the Cyprus champions hosted Borac Banja Luka but failed again, losing the home match 0-1. So far, APOEL's European campaign has been disappointing.
Suspensions and Injuries
Kingsley Sarfo will miss the match due to injury.

Nevertheless, the team reached the league stage, where they easily defeated New Saints (2-0) and St. Gallen (4-2).
