The home fans are expecting three points in this fixture, as the home advantage should be put to good use versus a struggling visitor. Nea Salamis are in the 7th position while the guesting Doxa worry at 12th.
We should expect both teams to be fresh and ready for this match, as there is some time since both teams last played. Let's have a look at how the teams are doing!
For Doxa it's their last days at this level as relegation is a fact.
Nea Salamis form and stats

Nea Salamis lost their last game at APOEL (placed 3rd) after a 1-2 scoreline. Before that game, the 2-1 home victory against Paphos.
The manager S. Poursaitidis will start preparations for the next game as soon this is finished, as the hosts are going to Anorthosis in only four days.
Nea Salamis have proved capable of finding the net in their games here at N. Papas Group Ammochostos-Epistrofi with 14 goals in 9 league matches. Defensively it’s touch-and-go for the home team as 17 goals have been conceded.
Doxa form and stats
There's been little loot from Doxa's travels as they have only collected 5 points from 9 away games in the 1. Division. Doxa only have 1 win to counter their 6 defeats and 2 draws. Recent form does not give Doxa much hope, as the visitors have lost three games in a row. Nea Salamis will be a tough nut to crack. The travelling fans think it's time that their travel expenses are covered with some points now, as Doxa have lost on their last two travels.
The attacking players of Doxa have been feeble for some time now, the team not scoring a league goal in the last 332 minutes.
Doxa play their second straight away game, having lost the previous one 0-3 to Anorthosis (placed 1st). A loss against APOEL was the result prior to that, in a home game.
There's been a serious shortage of goals from Doxa's away games in the league this season with only 4 goals from 9 matches. As opposed to that, Doxa have seen the ball go into their own net 13 times on the road.
