In this First Division encounter, AEK Larnaca secured a decisive 3-1 victory over Nea Salamina Famagusta FC. AEK Larnaca's clinical finishing was evident as they converted three of their opportunities into goals, capitalizing on their offensive strategy and high possession. Nea Salamina, despite a spirited second-half performance, struggled to break through Larnaca's defensive lines effectively, with limited shots on target and scant corner opportunities, which highlighted their difficulties in creating sustained pressure in the final third.

AEK Larnaca's superior teamwork and cohesive unit play were underscored by their ability to open the scoring in the first half and maintain momentum with a quick goal early in the second half. Their proficiency in set pieces and open play was further displayed by the seven corner kicks they earned, in contrast to Nea Salamina's two. These statistics reflect Larnaca's ability to control the midfield and dominate the attacking phases, pressuring Salamina's defense persistently.

Defensively, the match exposed AEK Larnaca's considerable discipline issue as evidenced by their accumulation of five yellow cards. Despite their aggressive defending, they managed to maintain composure and avoid red cards, a testament to their experienced backline's resilience. Conversely, Nea Salamina's lesser yellow card tally demonstrated their orbiting defensive caution, although it did not translate into a robust defensive performance as they allowed three goals. Salamina's failure to leverage their clean disciplinary record into effective defensive organization ultimately shaped their loss.
