## Venue[edit]

The Athens Olympic Stadium.

This was the nineteenth Greek Cup Final held at the Athens Olympic Stadium, after the 1983, 1984, 1985, 1986, 1987, 1988, 1989, 1990, 1993, 1994, 1995, 1996, 1999, 2000, 2002, 2009, 2010 and 2011 finals.

The Athens Olympic Stadium was built in 1982 and renovated once in 2004. The stadium is used as a venue for AEK Athens and Panathinaikos and was used for Olympiacos and the Greece national football team in various occasions. Its current capacity is 69,618 and hosted 3 UEFA European Cup/Champions League Finals in 1983, 1994 and 2007, a UEFA Cup Winners' Cup Final in 1987, the 1991 Mediterranean Games and the 2004 Summer Olympics.

## Background[edit]

Olympiacos qualified for the Greek Cup Final thirty five times, winning twenty four of them. They last played in a Final in 2009; they won AEK Athens by 15–14 on a penalty shootout, which came after a 4–4 draw at the end of the extra time.
