year begins in earnest on 25 June when the first and second qualifying round
draws take place at UEFA's headquarters in Nyon.

The UEFA Cup qualifying round draw will also take place in the same venue on the
same day as first step on the long road to the UEFA Cup final in Lisbon on 18

Separate ceremonies
The UEFA Cup format has been revamped for 2004/05 to include an innovative group
stage with eight groups of five teams before the winter break. As happened in
2003/04, Champions League and UEFA Cup matches will not always be played in the
same week.
