The final was played over two legs at White Hart Lane, London, England, and at De Kuip, Rotterdam, the Netherlands. It was won by Feyenoord of the Netherlands, who defeated Tottenham Hotspur of England by an aggregate result of 4–2 to claim their first UEFA Cup title.

This was the fifth consecutive year where a Dutch team won a European competition, and the first one outside of the European Cup. Feyenoord also broke a streak of six consecutive years of English clubs winning the UEFA Cup or the Inter-Cities Fairs Cup.
Association team allocation
A total of 64 teams from 31 UEFA member associations participate in the 1973–74 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.
Northern Ireland returned to the competition after a one-year absence. Scotland and Belgium were the two associations selected to have an extra third birth for this season, while France, Yugoslavia and Portugal went back to two qualified teams.

Notes
- ^ England: Although the Inter-Cities Fairs Cup old entry criterium of 'one city, one team' had been dispensed with the creation of the UEFA Cup, the Football Association retained it in their regulations, only being changed after the end of the 1974–1975 season. Arsenal finished 2nd in the 1972–73 Football League but couldn't qualify for the UEFA Cup, as Tottenham Hotspur was deemed as London's representative team via their League Cup title, which took precedence. As a result, Wolverhampton Wanderers inherited the remaining UEFA Cup spot.
