Remarks:
1 Biu Chun Rangers's home matches against Kitchee are played at Mong Kok Stadium instead of their usual home ground Sham Shui Po Sports Ground.
2 The capacity of Aberdeen Sports Ground is originally 9,000, but only the 4,000-seated main stand is opened for football match.
3 Home match against Sunray Cave JC Sun Hei was originally scheduled to be played on 31 March 2013 but was rescheduled to be played on 29 March 2013.
4 Since the 3,500-seated main stand was all full, the 1,500 temporary stand was opened and therefore the capacity of Tseung Kwan O Sports Ground was 5,000 in the home match against South China.
