	By a decision of 9 September 2016 of the Sofia City Court, CSKA ceased to exist <ref>http://www.legalworld.bg/55576.sydyt-oficializira-falita-na-cska.html</ref><ref>http://btvnovinite.bg/article/sport/objaviha-pfk-cska-ad-v-nesastojatelnost.html</ref>. Following the bankruptcy of PFC CSKA, two new clubs were established. PFC Litex Lovech, one of the most consistent Bulgarian clubs in the last 2 decades, changed its name to PFC CSKA-Sofia and moved its headquarters to Sofia. Angry with the replacement of their favourite club on all levels with Litex, part of the supporters of PFC CSKA Sofia refused to recognise the new club as their own and founded another new club, CSKA 1948 which started from the lowest Bulgarian division. As of September 2017, the process of liquidation of PFC CSKA hasn't been completed and it's still unclear which of the two new clubs, if any, will become its successor. According to the supporters of PFC CSKA-Sofia, the matches their club and Levski are continiation of the derby. Such an opinion isn't generally accepted and is not shared by the supporters of Levski and CSKA 1948.

The Eternal Derby of Bulgarian Football or simply The Eternal Derby is the name of the local derby football match between the two most popular and successful football clubs in Sofia and Bulgaria: PFC Levski Sofia and PFC CSKA Sofia. The clubs have won 26 and 31 national championship titles and 25 and 20 Bulgarian Cup titles, respectively.

History

The rivalry started in the late 1940s when the newly founded club of CSKA became a champion in their first year in competitive football in 1948. Both the 1948–49 and 1950 seasons ended with the two teams facing each other in Soviet Army Cup finals with Levski Sofia winning on both occasions after extra time of the second final replay, as the previous two final matches had finished as draws.

During the years, as the two teams became more and more successful, they gained large supporter bases. The confrontations between the clubs and their fans became commonplace and often resulted in tense encounters on the pitch and hooligan clashes between the fans off the pitch.

The hostility reached its climax on 19 June 1985 during the Bulgarian Cup final held at Vasil Levski National Stadium when, after many disputable referee decisions, both teams demonstrated poor sportsmanship which resulted in regular fights between them on the pitch. On 21 June, the Central Committee of the Bulgarian Communist Party issued a decree that disbanded both teams. CSKA Septemvriysko zname had to be re-founded as Sredets and Levski-Spartak as Vitosha. Six players (including Hristo Stoichkov and Borislav Mikhailov) were banned for life from playing competitive football; many other players and staff members were banned for three months to one year. A year later, the decision was abolished and the players continued their sport careers.

Venues

During the years, all the matches between Levski and CSKA were held at a neutral venue, in most cases at the Vasil Levski National Stadium. During the 2000s the clubs started to play their eternal derby matches at their own stadiums Georgi Asparuhov Stadium and Balgarska Armiya Stadium but soon they decided to move the matches between them back to the National Stadium because of its higher capacity.

Only once in the history of the Eternal derby it was held outside Sofia – in 1991, Levski won the Bulgarian Cup quarter-final 2–0 in a match that was played at Tundzha Stadium in Yambol.
