2Radomlje played their matches at the Domžale Sports Park because their stadium in Radomlje, roughly five kilometres from Domžale, did not meet the Football Association of Slovenia PrvaLiga stadia criteria.[3]
3Zavrč played the first half of the season at the Ptuj City Stadium, with the capacity of 2,207 seats, because their regular stadium went through a major reconstruction.[4]
