The 1990 Greek Cup final was the 46th final of the Greek Cup. The match took place on 17 May 1990 at the Olympic Stadium. The contesting teams were OFI and Olympiacos. It was OFI's second Greek Cup final in their 65 years of existence and Olympiacos' twenty-fifth Greek Cup final in their 65-year history.

Venue

Athens Olympic Stadium.

This was the eighth Greek Cup final held at the Athens Olympic Stadium, after the 1983, 1984, 1985, 1986, 1987, 1988 and 1989 finals.

The Athens Olympic Stadium was built in 1982. The stadium is used as a venue for Panathinaikos and Greece and was used for Olympiacos and AEK Athens in various occasions. Its current capacity is 80,000 and hosted a European Cup final in 1983 and a European Cup Winners' Cup final in 1987.

Background

OFI had reached the Greek Cup one time, in 1987, where they had won Iraklis by 3–1 on penalties, which came after a 1–1 draw at the end of the extra time.

Olympiacos had reached the Greek Cup final twenty four times, winning seventeen of them. The last time that they won the Cup was in 1981 (3–1 against PAOK). The last time that they played in a final was in 1988, where they had lost to Panathinaikos by 4–3 on penalties, which came after a 2–2 draw at the end of the extra time.

The two teams had never met each other in a Cup final.
