Season ticket holders at Makario Stadium haven’t seen too many victories this season, with Doxa languishing in the 12th position so far. The guesting Olympiakos will be hopeful to defend their higher league position in this one.
Both teams should be fairly well rested for this game, as they have had some quiet days to prepare. Hopefully this will translate into lots of action on the pitch.
This is a match between teams from the same area, a local derby. The community is buzzing.
Doxa form and stats
With {0 1. Division wins}, 2 draws and 4 defeats from their home games, Doxa are certainly not brimming with confidence.
The fans are hoping that Doxa will strike back in this match, putting things right after the 0-2 away loss in the 1. Division game against Omonia Nicosia (placed 2nd). A strong away win before that one, visiting Akritas and winning 7-0.
The bookmakers consider this a fairly even contest. One could say only the home advantage separates the teams. It could be relevant to look at how Doxa have performed in matches similar to this (as small favourites). Our database has found six matches with the results: Won 2 Drawn 2 Lost 2.
