Venue

This was the third Greek Cup final held at Leoforos Alexandras Stadium, after the 1932 and 1939 finals. (Leoforos also hosted the replay match of the 1933 final between Ethnikos Piraeus and Aris).

Leoforos Alexandras Stadium was built in 1922. The stadium is used as a venue for Panathinaikos and Greece. Its current capacity is 30,000.
