The final phase of the 2003β04 UEFA Cup began on 26 February 2004 with the third round and concluded on 19 May 2004 with the final at the Ullevi in Gothenburg, Sweden. The final phase involved 32 teams: the 24 teams which qualified from the second round, and the eight third-placed teams from the Champions League group stage.
Times up to 27 March 2004 (third and fourth rounds) were CET (UTC+1), and thereafter (quarter-finals to final) CEST (UTC+2).
Round and draw dates
The schedule was as follows (all draws were held at the UEFA headquarters in Nyon, Switzerland).

---|---|---|---|
Third round | 12 December 2003 | 26 February 2004 | 3 March 2004 |
Fourth round | 4 March 2004 | 11 March 2004 | 25 March 2004 |
Quarter-finals | 8 April 2004 | 14 April 2004 | |
Semi-finals | 22 April 2004 | 6 May 2004 | |
Final | 19 May 2004 at Ullevi, Gothenburg |
Format
Apart from the final, each tie was played over two legs, with each team playing one leg at home. The team that scored more goals on aggregate over the two legs advanced to the next round. If the aggregate score was level, the away goals rule was applied, i.e., the team that scored more goals away from home over the two legs advanced. If away goals were also equal, then thirty minutes of extra time (two fifteen-minute periods) was played. In the final phase the silver goal system was applied, whereby the team who leads the game at the half-time break during the extra time period would be declared the winner. If the scores were still level after the initial 15 minutes of extra time play would continue for a further 15 minutes. The away goals rule was again applied after extra time, i.e., if there were goals scored during extra time and the aggregate score was still level, the visiting team advanced by virtue of more away goals scored. If no goals were scored during extra time, the tie was decided by penalty shoot-out.
In the final, which was played as a single match, if scores were level at the end of normal time, extra time was played. If, on completion of the first period of extra time, one of the teams had scored more goals than the other, the silver goal rule was applied, i.e., the match ended and that team was declared the winner. If no decisive goal was scored, the second period of the extra time was played, followed by a penalty shoot-out if scores remained tied.
The mechanism of the draws for each round was as follows:
- In the draws for the third and fourth rounds, teams were seeded and divided into groups containing an equal number of seeded and unseeded teams. In each group, the seeded teams were drawn against the unseeded teams, with the first team drawn hosting the first leg. Teams from the same association could not be drawn against each other.
- In the draws for the quarter-finals onwards, there were no seedings and teams from the same association could be drawn against each other.
