Association team allocation

Summarize
Perspective

A total of 64 teams from 31 UEFA member associations participate in the 1977–78 UEFA Cup. The original allocation scheme was as follows:

  • 3 associations have four teams qualify.
  • 3 associations have three teams qualify.
  • 18 associations have two teams qualify.
  • 7 associations have one team qualify.

Poland and Switzerland were the two associations selected to have a third berth for this season, while Hungary and Romania went back to two qualified teams.






  • ^
    Wales: There was no national league in Wales before 1992 and the only competition organised by the Football Association of Wales was the Welsh Cup so Wales had just a single participant in European competitions, the winner (or best placed Welsh team as several English teams also competed) of the Welsh Cup which competed in the UEFA Cup Winners' Cup.
  • ^
    Albania: Albanian teams were absent from European competition from 1973 to 1978 due to the international isolation of the country during the communist rule of Enver Hoxha.[1] Skënderbeu would have qualified for the UEFA Cup by league position.
