International football competition

The 1976–77 UEFA Cup was the sixth season of the UEFA Cup, the third-tier club football competition organised by UEFA. The final was played over two legs at Stadio Comunale, Turin, Italy, and at San Mamés, Bilbao, Spain. It was won by Juventus of Italy, who defeated Athletic Bilbao of Spain on the away goals rule after a 2–2 aggregate draw to claim their first UEFA Cup title.

This was the first major European conquest for Juventus, having previously lost one European Cup final and two Inter-Cities Fairs' Cup finals. It was the first time that a team from Southern Europe had won the competition, and the last European title for an Italian team for seven years, which was their biggest international drought at club level until 2018.

In their first European final, Athletic Bilbao was the first Spanish finalist in the UEFA Cup, and the only one until 1985. A Spanish club last reached the Inter-Cities Fairs' Cup final in 1966, which was also the last year with a Spanish title in Europe. Athletic became the fourth different Spanish side to lose at this stage in European competition ever since.

Association team allocation

A total of 64 teams from 31 UEFA member associations participate in the 1976–77 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.

Hungary and Romania were the two associations selected to have an extra third birth for this season, while the Soviet Union and Sweden went back to two qualified teams.

Wales Wales
Albania Albania
  • 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. Vllaznia would have qualified for the UEFA Cup by league position.
