Supercup

Main article: 2012 Slovenian Supercup

The 2012 Slovenian Supercup was the eighth edition of the Slovenian Supercup, an annual football match contested by the winners of the previous season's Slovenian PrvaLiga and Slovenian Cup competitions. However, Maribor has won the double during the 2011–12 season, having finished first in the 2011–12 Slovenian PrvaLiga and 2011–12 Slovenian Football Cup. As a consequence and according to the rules of the Football Association of Slovenia, they played the 2012 Supercup against the runners-up of the PrvaLiga, Olimpija. This was the first major domestic cup final of Olimpija, since the club was established in 2005. Maribor won the match 2–1 and secured their second supercup title.

Qualified as the 2012–13 Slovenian PrvaLiga champions, Maribor started their European campaign in the second qualifying round of the 2012–13 UEFA Champions League against Bosnian Premier League champions Željezničar. This was the first meeting in UEFA competitions between Maribor and a team from Bosnia and Herzegovina. The first leg was played at the Ljudski vrt stadium, the home of Maribor. The match started poorly for the home side as shortly after the missed scoring opportunity from Ibraimi, Maribor soon found themselves a goal behind when Adilović scored the opener in the 15th minute. Maribor then took control and tried to score an equalizer before half time, however, they were unsuccessful and the score was 1–0, in favour of the Bosnian side, at the 45 minute mark. Maribor dominated during the second half and was able to capitalize on their chances. Berić scored the first goal for the home side in the 47th minute, with Mezga adding the second one in the 67th, from penalty. Berić, who was man of the match, scored his second goal in the 76th minute, giving his side a 3–1 lead. He did not stop there as in the 90th minute he assisted team captain Tavares, who scored his first goal of the season, for the final score 4–1. The second leg was played a week later in Sarajevo and was followed by over 500 Maribor supporters. Željezničar plays their home matches at Grbavica Stadium, however, their stadium did not meet UEFA stadia criteria and they were forced to play at Asim Ferhatović Hase Olympic stadium. The home side needed a three goals victory to progress to the next round and had couple of chances to score early in the match, including a disallowed goal from Adilović who was in offside position. Their plans for an early lead were shattered, however, when Ibraimi scored from a long range effort in the 20th minute, which was the only goal during the first half. Second half started poorly for the Bosnians when Čolić received his second booking and was subsequently sent off. Željezničar bounced back in the 59th minute when Kvesić scored an equalizer. However, soon afterwards the nervous home players received two red cards in a matter of minutes and had to finish the match with only eight players. Maribor then prevailed, took the ball possession and finished the match with the goal from Tavares, for the final score of the match 2–1, and 6–2 aggregate.

The match between Maribor and Dudelange attracted a crowd of 12,025.

In the third qualifying round, Maribor faced Dudelange from Luxembourg, a team which made a huge upset by eliminating the Austrian champions Salzburg. This was the second year in a row for Maribor to face Dudelange. During the 2011–12 season Maribor played against them in the second qualifying round of the 2011–12 UEFA Champions League and was successful with two victories and the score 5–1 aggregate. The first match against the Luxembourg champions was played on 1 August 2012 at Ljudski vrt. Being fully aware that a two-legged victory over Dudelange secures, at least, the UEFA Europa League group stages, Maribor players started their home match strong and quickly took the lead with a free kick goal by Mezga. Another free kick goal followed in the 38th minute when Mezga left the ball to Tavares who scored with a strong shot to the lower left corner, for the half-time score 2–0. It took only two minutes of the second half for the home players to score the third goal, when Mezga scored another long range effort from outside of the penalty box. In the 77th minute Berić continued his good form, having scored his third goal in as many 2012–13 UEFA qualifying matches. This goal was not the last, however, as Joachim took advantage of a mistake from Rajčević and scored in the 92nd minute for the final score 4–1. One week later Maribor again proved to strong for the Luxembourg champions and won 1–0, with the goal by Mertelj in the 79th minute. Similarly to the 2011–12 season Maribor again secured two victories over Dudelange, with the score 5–1 aggregate.

Dinamo Zagreb and Maribor moments before kick-off on 22 August 2012

For the play-off round of the elite UEFA Champions League, Maribor was drawn together with Croatian champions Dinamo Zagreb. This was the second time the two clubs have met in the UEFA competitions, having faced each other during the 2003–04 UEFA Champions League qualifying stages, when Dinamo secured a close 2–1 aggregate victory. The first leg was played at Maksimir stadium in front of 20,135 spectators, over 1,000 of which were Maribor supporters, a record for the most fans gathered on Maribor's away matches. Dinamo were the favorites and took an early lead with a goal by Duje Čop. Dinamo continued to play well and had couple of more chances, but it was Maribor who scored the second goal, from an own goal scored by Dinamo's captain Milan Badelj. Both teams had chances to take the lead in the second half and in the 74th minut Badelj scored another goal. This time it was in the right net and Dinamo regained their lead. Shortly afterwards Maribor's Robert Berić had a good chance to equalize, but was unsuccessful. Right at the end, Sammir had a good chance to increase the lead of the home team, however, his free-kick attempt narrowly missed the target. The second leg in Maribor saw a turn out of 12,420 spectators, the most of the 2012–13 season, which were expecting a good result from the home side and the qualification to the Champions league for the first time in almost 10 years. The Croatians, however, proved again to be too strong and after taking another early lead, they comfortably held the positive result right until the very end, with couple of good chances to increase the lead. Dinamo thus won the second leg with an away 1–0 victory, aggregate 3–1, and advanced to the Champions league group stages for the second successive season. Even though, they were defeated, Maribor advanced to the group stages of the UEFA Europa League.
