Notes

edit
  1. ^ Krumovgrad will host their matches at Sporten kompleks "Nikola Shterev - Starika", Plovdiv, as their own venue, Krumovgrad Stadium, Krumovgrad, does not meet BFU requirements.[23]
  2. ^ Ballkani played their home match at the Fadil Vokrri Stadium in Pristina, instead of their regular stadium, the Theranda City Stadium in Suva Reka, which did not meet UEFA requirements.
