The 2013–14 Cypriot First Division was the 76th season of the Cypriot top-level football league. It began on 31 August 2013 and ended on 31 May 2014.APOEL were the defending champions.
The league comprised eleven teams from the 2012–13 season and three promoted teams from the 2012–13 Second Division.
The 17 May 2014 title deciding match between AEL Limassol and APOEL was abandoned (at 0–0) after 52 minutes, when firecrackers thrown by AEL fans, hit and injured APOEL's player Kaká. The match was replayed behind closed doors at a neutral stadium on 31 May 2014 and APOEL achieved to win their second consecutive league title after beating AEL Limassol by 1–0. However, on 6 June 2014, the Cyprus Football Association’s (CFA) disciplinary committee – acting as an appeals board – unanimously cancelled on the CFA council’s decision to repeat the 17 May championship final, awarding the match to APOEL with a 0–3 score.
AEP Paphos and Ayia Napa were relegated at the end of the first stage of the 2012–13 season after finishing in the bottom two places of the table. They were joined by Olympiakos Nicosia, who finished at the bottom of the second-phase Group C.
The relegated teams were replaced by 2012–13 Second Division champions Aris Limassol, runners-up AEK Kouklia and third-placed team Ermis Aradippou.
