During the 2010–11 season APOEL reached the Europa League Play-off round being eliminated by Getafe CF 2–1 on aggregate, eliminated in the 2nd round of Cypriot Cup by Apollon 3–1 on aggregate, but finished the season with an emphatic way by winning the Championship four games before the end of the season, creating that day an advantage of 15 points from its main competitor and arch rivals Omonoia.
