Maccabi Tel Aviv will play its home games in Cyprus starting on matchday 11

He Maccabi Tel Aviv will play its home games in Limassol (Cyprus), from the eleventh day of the Euroleague and “until further notice”, as reported this Thursday by the competition.

The Israeli team will play in the Spyros Kyprianou Arenaa facility for 8,000 spectators, but which will see its capacity reduced to 5,000 seats. The Cypriot pavilion replaces the Alexander Nikolic from Belgrade, where the team from the capital of Israel played to date.

Maccabi will debut in its new home venue on matchday 11, precisely against another Israeli team, the Hapoel IBI Tel Aviv.

Due to the current situation in the region, Israeli teams are playing their home games in alternative venues, a measure that seeks to “guarantee the safety and well-being of players, technical staff and fans,” as the Euroleague recalled in the statement.
