Season events On 24 June Karpaty gathered at club's base in Bartativ for the first pre-season training camp, which continued until 5 July.

On 7 July Karpaty departed for two-week training camp in Austria. Five friendly fixtures were planned, but match against Hertha Berlin on 18 July was cancelled due to excessive number of injuries in German team.

On 31 December Karpaty terminated cooperation with head coach Vladyslav Lupashko by mutual agreement, mainly due to mediocre performance during first half of the season. About a week later he was replaced by former Murcia manager Fran Fernández.
