| Note: Lokomotiv Plovdiv did not appear on the field in protest because of the penalty imposed on them for deprivation of home ground by the Bulgarian Football Union. So after 15 minutes the referee ended the match without it being played. The Bulgarian Football Union's STK awarded an official victory to CSKA and deducted three points from Lokomotiv's assets for failure to appear. | ||||
