Notes:
  1. ^ On 29 October 2009, UEFA's Control and Disciplinary Body ruled that Dinamo Zagreb would have to play their next two home matches in the UEFA Europa League behind closed doors due to the actions of their supporters in their match at Timișoara. They also deducted three points from the Croatian club's points tally in Group A.[4] The club appealed, but the appeal was not heard until after the first closed-doors game against Ajax. After the appeal was heard, UEFA replaced the three-point deduction with a €75,000 fine, and a three-year suspended ban from European competition, while the two-match stadium ban remained unchanged.[5]

[edit]
  1. ^ a b On 29 October 2009, UEFA's Control and Disciplinary Body ruled that Dinamo Zagreb would have to play their next two home matches in the UEFA Europa League behind closed doors due to the actions of their supporters in their match at Timișoara. They also deducted three points from the Croatian club's points tally in Group A.[6] The club appealed, but the appeal was not heard until after the first closed-doors game against Ajax. After the appeal was heard, UEFA replaced the three-point deduction with a €75,000 fine, and a three-year suspended ban from European competition, while the two-match stadium ban remained unchanged.[7]
  2. ^ a b c Lille played their home group matches in Villeneuve-d'Ascq at Stadium Lille-Metropole as Lille's Stade Grimonprez Jooris was left in 2004. In 2012, Stadium Grimonprez Jooris was replaced definitely by Stade Borne de l'Espoir.
  3. ^ a b c Rapid Wien played their home group matches at Ernst-Happel-Stadion as it had a greater capacity than their Gerhard Hanappi Stadium.[8]
  4. ^ a b c Ventspils played their home group matches in Riga at Skonto Stadium as their Ventspils Olimpiskais Stadions did not meet UEFA criteria.
  5. ^ a b c CSKA Sofia played their home group matches at Vasil Levski National Stadium as their Balgarska Armiya Stadium did not meet UEFA criteria.
  6. ^ a b c Panathinaikos played their group matches in Athens at Olympic Stadium as Panathinaikos' Leoforos Alexandras Stadium had been replaced temporarily by that stadium. In 2010, Leoforos Alexandras Stadium was replaced definitely by Marfin Stadium.
  7. ^ a b Two home matches which Dinamo București had to play behind closed doors because one fan entered the playing field and other fans invaded the running track around the pitch in the play-off round against Slovan Liberec.
  8. ^ The second of two home matches which Steaua București had to play behind closed doors because their fans had flown offensive banners to Újpest in the second qualifying round.
  9. ^ a b c BATE Borisov played their home group matches in Minsk at Dinamo Stadium as their Haradski Stadium did not meet UEFA criteria.
