Having won the Gambrinus liga the previous season, they entered the competition as defending champions. As league champions they also took part in the UEFA Champions League for the first time in their history. Plzeň started the season by defeating FC Pyunik in the second qualifying round of the UEFA Champions League, winning with an aggregate score of 9–1. Later that month they claimed the Supercup with a penalty shootout win over rivals Mladá Boleslav. The club subsequently navigated the third qualifying round and play-off round of the Champions League to qualify for the group stage, where they were drawn with giants Barcelona and A.C. Milan as well as BATE Borisov. Plzeň scored their first point on 13 September, drawing 1–1 in Prague against Borisov, and their first win came on matchday 5 in the return fixture. Plzeň recorded another point in the final group match, a 2–2 draw with Milan in the San Siro. Having achieved third place in the group, Plzeň qualified for the Europa League. In the new year, Plzeň entered the UEFA Europa League round of 32, where they lost over two legs to German outfit Schalke 04, this was soon followed by an aggregate defeat to Mladá Boleslav in the Czech Cup. Other than one loss, a 4–0 defeat at home against Olomouc, Plzeň were undefeated in the league in the spring part and went into the final match against title rivals Liberec knowing that a win would seal the title for either team, although a draw would end Plzeň's hopes. The game finished goalless and Liberec won the title, Plzeň having to settle for third place.
