In addition to the domestic league, CSKA Sofia participates in this season's edition of the Bulgarian Cup. For a second consecutive year the club will not play in the UEFA club tournaments. The last time this occurred for sporting reasons was in the 1967–69 period.

Notes

  1. From the spring of 2024 CSKA plays their home games at Natsionalen stadion Vasil Levski, Sofia, instead of their regular stadium Stadion Balgarska Armia, Sofia, which is undergoing a major reconstruction.
  2. The game has been moved to Stadion Beroe in Stara Zagora, as Arena Arda in Kardzhali will undergo pitch renovation.[4]
  3. Septemvri plays this game at Natsionalen stadion Vasil Levski, Sofia, instead of their regular stadium Stadion DIT, Sofia, which cannot accommodate the large away support.
