The 1952 Greek Cup final was the 10th final of the Greek Cup. The initial match took place on 1 June 1952 and the replay match took place on 15 June 1952 at Leoforos Alexandras Stadium. The contesting teams were Olympiacos and Panionios. It was Olympiacos' third Greek Cup final and second consecutive in their 27 years of existence and Panionios' first ever Greek Cup final in their 62-year history.[1]
This was the ninth Greek Cup final held at Leoforos Alexandras Stadium, after the 1932, 1939, 1940, 1947, 1948, 1949, 1950 and 1951 finals. (Leoforos also hosted the replay match of the 1933 final between Ethnikos Piraeus and Aris and the replay match of the 1949 final between AEK Athens and Panathinaikos).
Leoforos Alexandras Stadium was built in 1922. The stadium is used as a venue for Panathinaikos and Greece. Its current capacity is 30,000.[2]
Olympiacos had reached the Greek Cup final two times, winning all of them. The last time that they played in a final was in 1952, where they had won Panionios by 2–0 in a replay match, after the 2–2 of the initial match.
