The 1991 season was the 67th year in Guria's history and second season in the Umaglesi Liga. Based on the Federation's decision to switch to the autumn-spring system starting from late 1991, this season was transitional, lasting around three months. For the same reason, no cup tournament was held.
Guria maintained the core of its squad from the previous season and the status of a title-chasing team. In a one-round competition, they shared the points with Iberia and produced a perfect home record with ten wins in as many games but dropped many points in away mid-season matches. Ultimately, despite an eight-game winning run in the closing stage, they fell short in the title race.[1]
Otar Korgalidze shone again. This time he finished as the league top scorer with 14 goals in 18 matches.[2]
