Pafos FC faces performance decline ahead of final regular season matches

Pafos FC, the reigning league champions, are currently experiencing a significant dip in performance, holding 45 points after 24 matches with a goal difference of 43-24. This record marks the team's lowest point total in the last three seasons compared to previous years. Following the departure of coach Juan Carlos Carcedo, who left the team in second place just two points behind the leaders, the club has slipped to fourth position under successor Albert Celades. In the eight matches since the coaching change, the team has earned 11 out of 24 possible points with a record of three wins, two draws, and four losses. The club currently trails the league leaders by 10 points. To secure a favorable position for the upcoming playoffs and European qualification, the team must win their remaining two regular-season matches against ENY and Akritas. Despite their strong performance in the Champions League, domestic stability remains a concern for the management and coaching staff.
