Each European football nation is represented by a different number of its associate clubs, depending on the UEFA coefficients. Budućnost Podgorica and Rudar Pljevlja were the first teams from Montenegro to enter the competition.

The semi-final between Zenit and Bayern Munich was alleged to have been fixed. Both clubs denied the allegations, and the UEFA probe found no wrongdoing on either part.[1][2][3]

Sevilla could not defend their title as they automatically qualified for the 2007–08 UEFA Champions League and also reached the knockout stage.

The tournament's top scorers were Pavel Pogrebnyak of Zenit Saint Petersburg and Luca Toni of Bayern Munich, each with 10 goals.[4]

1 This match was played at Partizan Stadium in Belgrade.
2 UEFA expelled Partizan from the 2007–08 UEFA Cup due to crowd trouble at their away tie in Mostar, which forced the match to be interrupted for 10 minutes. UEFA adjudged travelling Partizan fans to have been the culprits of the trouble,[7] but Partizan were allowed to play the return leg while the appeal was being processed.[8] However, Partizan's appeal was rejected so Zrinjski Mostar qualified.[9]
3 This match was played at Szusza Ferenc Stadium in Budapest because MTK Budapest's ground in Budapest does not meet UEFA standards.
4 This match was played at Zimbru Stadium in Chişinău because FC Nistru Otaci's ground in Otaci does not meet UEFA standards.
