In Omonia, from the day after the first semi-final with Aris for the cup, they turned their attention to the game against Anorthosis at “Antonis Papadopoulos” for the 7th matchday of the playoffs. There can be no doubt that this derby is the most important, at least until the next one for the Greens, who remained firmly in the championship game. The two three-pointers he scored in a few days at Aris, certify that Omonia is in a very good playing condition, however, a similar continuation is required.
The game against Anorthosis is particularly demanding and the Famagusta team, playing at home and free from the stress of points, will compete in front of their home crowd with the aim of achieving another victory after the great double in the GSP against APOEL. Yannis Anastasiou, for his part, made it clear to his footballers that at no point in the match should they show relaxation thinking that the task will be easy. Omonia will need to maintain their high performance standards throughout the match if they want to leave Larnaca with a great double. The Greek coach paid special attention during the last training sessions at the end of the phases. The game with “Kyria” can be decided even in the goal, so Omonia must be very consistent offensively.
Of course, attention is also needed in the blocking part, as the opponent has fast footballers who can make the damage from the ends. As for the competitive part, the injured Fabiano, Lang and possibly Kasama will be missing from the match. The captain Ioannis Kousoulos, who is suspended, is also not counted. As can be seen, therefore, there will definitely be a change in the center area, while it is not certain that Matthews and Hamas will return to the original formation, since Miletic and Cipriano did very well against Aris.
