AE Zakakiou, Othellos Set for Key Early Season Clash

PARAKLISIA, Cyprus (Interstat) — AE Zakakiou will host Othellos Athienou in a CYP: 2. Division match on Friday, March 6, 2026, at Koinotiko Stadio Parekklisias.

The Week 2 contest presents an early test for both sides in Cyprus’s second tier. Statistical projections offer a split verdict on the likely outcome. The Interstat game simulator predicts a 1-1 draw. However, the same service’s ELO rating system gives the home side, AE Zakakiou, a 63.30 percent probability of securing a victory.

AE Zakakiou enters the match looking to rebound from a defeat in its last competitive outing, a 1-0 home loss to Ayia Napa on Sept. 20, 2025. The lengthy gap since that match leaves the team’s current form a question mark.

The visiting Othellos side will aim to shake off a more recent defeat, having fallen 3-0 at Doxa on April 26, 2025. Following Friday’s match, Othellos’ next scheduled league game is not until Friday, March 27, 2026, with a trip to face Omonia 29is Maiou.

The fixture at the community stadium in Pareklisia is set for a 5 p.m. local kickoff (1500 GMT).
