Enosis hope to sell some tickets for this game even though the season has been rough so far with 17 points and a 10th position in the 1. Division table. Visiting Anorthosis holds 7th place with 28 pts.

There should be plenty of energy on the pitch in this game, as both sides have had time to recuperate from their last game. Let's hope both teams are ready to give it all.
