[edit] Early issues

• Because of its withdrawal in last edition Armenian champions Pyunik Yerevan were not allowed to compete, Banants Yerevan taking their place. The club's coach, Jan Poštulka, would say before one of the group stage games that he didn't understand the competition but as a training season.
• Kazakhstan champions FC Astana refused to take part in this year's competition, so their place was offered to FC Aktobe-Lento, who played instead.
• Serbian side OFK Beograd played instead of the customary junior Russian national team, turning into the first non post-Soviet club to take part in the CIS Cup.
