The 2013–14 Zenit Saint Petersburg season was the 18th successive season that the club played in the Russian Premier League, the highest tier of football in Russia. They finished as runners-up to CSKA Moscow in the Russian Premier League, lost the 2013 Super Cup 3 0 to CSKA Moscow, were knocked out of the Russian Cup by Russian Professional Football League side FC Tyumen, and reached the Last 16 of the UEFA Champions League, losing to Borussia Dortmund.

Zenit started the season under the management of Luciano Spalletti, but Spalletti was sacked on 11 March 2014,[1] being replaced by Sergei Semak, in a caretaker capacity, for nine days before André Villas-Boas was appointed manager on 20 March 2014.[2]
