Etar Veliko Tarnovo began its Bulgarian Second League campaign with a strong performance, securing a 1-0 victory against Marek Dupnitsa. The win, driven by a 73rd-minute goal from Kristian Velichkov, marked the club’s third consecutive win and placed them at the top of the league standings with nine points. Following this undefeated streak, Etar drew 1-1 against Rilski Sportist. Although Anastas Pemperki scored early in the 13th minute following a corner kick from Toma Ushagelov, Rilski Sportist equalized in the 86th minute via Iliya Dimitrov. This result represented the first time Etar dropped points during the season, though the club maintained its position at the top of the standings with 10 points. Etar’s unbeaten run ended during the fifth round in the 64th Northern Derby against Lokomotiv Gorna Oryahovitsa. Lokomotiv secured a 2-1 victory with goals from Julian Ivanov and Dimitar Iliev. Although Radoslav Naydenov scored for Etar in the 90th minute, Lokomotiv defenders made crucial goal-line clearances in stoppage time to secure the win. Despite this first loss, Etar remained at the top of the table with 10 points. However, the club’s form declined in the seventh round during a derby against Vihren Sandanski. Etar suffered a 4-1 defeat, with the match's lone goal for Etar recorded as an own goal by Aleksandar Bastunov in the 66th minute. This loss extended Etar’s winless streak to four consecutive matches. Etar managed to break their slump in the eighth round with a 1-0 victory over CSKA II. Tsvetomir Tsanev scored the decisive goal in the 42nd minute. Despite significant pressure from CSKA II in the second half, goalkeeper Angel Martinov secured the clean sheet with several key saves, marking a return to form for the team.
