Long Time Coming for an Away Win

APOEL is looking for its first away win in a long time, as it faces AEL at the 'Alphamega' stadium on Saturday. The team's impressive start did not continue, and the victory over Omonia is now a thing of the past. APOEL's last away win was in October, with a series of four consecutive victories. However, since then, in seven away games, APOEL has achieved only one win (in a match against Olympiakos held at the GSP), three defeats and three draws. This makes the game against AEL particularly important, as a win will strengthen APOEL's position in the first group. AEL is the only opponent threatening APOEL's participation in the first group, as they are six points behind with three games remaining. A win in Limassol will clarify the situation and ensure APOEL's stay in the top category. For Pablo Garcia and his players, the victory against AEL is an additional incentive, as they had been defeated by the same team in the first round at home.
