Klubi Sportiv Sopoti Librazhd is an Albanian sports club based in Librazhd. Its football team is currently competing in Albania's First Division, the 2nd tier of Albanian football. They were founded in 1948 under the name KS Albania Tabak Librazhd, and they play their home games at the Sopoti Stadium. The club is named after the nearby Sopot Mountain.

The club's home ground is the is a multi-use Sopoti Stadium which is situated in the centre of the town next to the municipality building. The stadium which has a capacity of 3,000 spectators was built in 1964 and has been the club's home ever since. The stadium is not currently fit for use but the Albanian Football Association along with the Librazhd Municipality have drawn up initial plans to reconstruct the stadium in its entirety, but such plans have yet to be materialised due to a lack of funding.

As of the 2014–15 season the stadium does not meet the current Albanian Football Association's standard requirements, due to the outdated and run down nature of the building as well as the field. In July 2014 there were sightings of snakes on the field due to the lack of maintenance regarding the pitch, where there had previously been flooding which led to sewage works finding their way onto the field of the stadium.
