Overview[edit]

The season began on 4 March 2004 and concluded on 20 November 2004. The League reduced from 16 to 14 teams because Kokand 1912 and Dustlik were excluded from 2004 season for being unable to pay their debts to the UFF from the previous season (2003). Pakhtakor Tashkent won the championship.
