Omonia Nicosia set the pace: A strong start puts the Greens on top of Cyprus

04 November 2025
The 2025/26 Cypriot First Division has kicked off in thrilling fashion, and Omonia Nicosia are wasting no time showing their intent. With several rounds gone, the capital club sit proudly at the top of the table, leading the pack after a series of confident, high-energy performances that have their supporters dreaming of silverware once again.
⚽ A Confident Start
Omonia’s early-season form has been a model of consistency. The team have combined sharp attacking play with disciplined defending, finding the right balance that often separates title contenders from the chasing pack. New summer signings have blended seamlessly with the core of experienced Cypriot and international players, giving manager Henning Berg plenty of depth and flexibility.
The Greens opened their campaign with a statement win and have built momentum week by week. Whether playing at the GSP Stadium or on the road, Omonia have shown control, confidence, and an ability to grind out results when needed — traits that often define champions.
🧱 Solid Foundations
Defensively, Omonia have looked organized and resilient. The back line, marshalled by veteran leadership, has limited opponents to few clear chances. Their high pressing game has been sharp and well-coordinated, cutting off passing lanes and setting up quick transitions.
🌟 Star Performers and Emerging Talent
Several players have stood out in the early rounds. Semedo has been clinical in front of goal, while the wide players have provided pace and creativity. Henning Berg has shown trust in young local talent which will help develop several Cypriot players into first team mainstays.
🔥 A Message to Rivals
With APOEL, Aris, and Pafos FC all hovering close behind, Omonia know that the race is far from over. Yet their early surge has sent a clear message: they are organized, motivated, and determined to reclaim their status as the dominant force in Cypriot football.
🏆 Eyes on the Prize
For fans, it’s a refreshing sight — a team playing with belief, unity, and purpose. If Omonia can maintain their intensity through the coming months, keep key players fit, and navigate the tougher fixtures ahead, they could well be celebrating come season’s end.
As things stand, the GREENS are on top — and Cyprus is watching.
