# 1992–93 UEFA Cup

The 1992–93 UEFA Cup was the 22nd season of Europe's then-tertiary club football tournament organised by UEFA. The final was played over two legs at Westfalenstadion, Dortmund, Germany, and at Stadio Delle Alpi, Turin, Italy. The competition was won by Italian club Juventus, who beat Borussia Dortmund of Germany by an aggregate result of 6–1, to claim their third UEFA Cup title.
Juventus became the first club to win the UEFA Cup three times, and registered a record score for a two-legged UEFA Cup final. Due to the breakup of Yugoslavia and the international sanctions for the ongoing Yugoslav Wars, UEFA banned all Yugoslavian teams from competing. Slovenia, a former Yugoslav republic, was represented for the first time in the UEFA Cup, although Olimpija Ljubljana competed in its unofficial predecessor Inter-Cities Fairs' Cup in the late 1960s.

## Association team allocation

A total of 64 teams from 31 UEFA member associations participated in the 1992–93 UEFA Cup, all entering from the first round over six knock-out rounds. The association ranking based on the UEFA country coefficients was originally used to determine the number of participating teams for each association:
* Associations 1–3 each have four teams qualify.
* Associations 4–8 each have three teams qualify.
* Associations 9–21 each have two teams qualify.
* Associations 22–32 each have one team qualify.
The various political reorganizations and disputes in Europe resulted in various changes in the team allocation. Yugoslavia (association 10 in the ranking) and Albania were banned from entering the competition, and their three berths went to associations 9, 11 and 12 as a third berth. East Germany had ceased to exist as a country after the German reunification, and its results were erased from the UEFA ranking. As the place allocation was one team short, the newly formed Slovenia was allowed to enter the competition without a ranking coefficient.

### Association ranking

For the 1992–93 UEFA Cup, the associations are allocated places according to their 1991 UEFA country coefficients, which takes into account their performance in European competitions from 1986–87 to 1990–91. Therefore, it did not include any of the new football federations that had join UEFA in the prior months. Having returned to European competitions in 1990 after a five-year ban, England's score was limited to the last of the five seasons accounted for in the ranking, and only two English clubs competed in the UEFA Cup.

Notes
* ^ Russia/Ukraine: As per the original agreement between Russia and Ukraine after the dissolution of the Soviet Union, teams qualified for the UEFA Cup through the 1991 Soviet Top League would compete for their own federations, with two Ukrainian sides and one Russian side, while Ukraine was allowed to obtain a place of their own for the UEFA Champions League and the European Cup Winners' Cup. Chornomorets, one of the Ukrainian sides that had qualified for the UEFA Cup, won the 1992 Ukrainian Cup and entered the European Cup Winners' Cup, relinquishing the spot to the next best non-qualified team. This was Dynamo Moscow, giving Russia a second team along a single Ukrainian side.
* ^ Austria: FC Swarovski Tirol qualified for the UEFA Cup, but the team was dissolved and its licence in the Austrian Football Bundesliga was taken by Wacker Innsbruck. While considered a new team, Wacker Innsbruck retained the UEFA Cup placing, effectively reversing the events of 1986.
