FC CSKA 1948 Sofia (Bulgarian: ФК ЦСКА 1948 София) is a Bulgarian football club from Sofia. The team plays its home matches at the Bistritsa Stadium and competes in Bulgaria's First League. The colours of the club are red and white.

The club was founded in 2016 by a group of CSKA supporters who opposed Grisha Ganchev's recognition of Litex Lovech for CSKA Sofia after the owner of the old club abolished its phoenix club. The new club quickly progressed from the lower levels of the football system and was eventually promoted to the top level in 2020.
