Notes

  • The 2019–20 campaign was abandoned before the end of the season due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
  • In 2020–21 and from 2022–23 onwards, the Cyprus Football Association officially names a separate top scorer for each of the two groups, since the teams in the Relegation Group play more games than those in the Championship Group.
