Nikola Shterev - Starika Sports Complex (Bulgarian: Спортен комплекс „Никола Щерев - Старика“, romanizedSporten Kompleks Nikola Shterev - Starika) or simply Starika is a football complex in Komatevo, Plovdiv, Bulgaria. It serves as the training grounds of Botev Plovdiv and as a home to its reserve team and youth academy.

For nearly ten years, from late 2013 to April 2023, the first team used the venue for training sessions and official matches, while their stadium, the Hristo Botev Stadium, was being reconstructed.
