The 2007 UEFA Cup Final was played on 16 May 2007 at Hampden Park in Glasgow, Scotland.

In an all-Spanish final, Sevilla FC defeated RCD Espanyol 3–1 on penalties after drawing 2–2 after extra-time, becoming the first club to win the Cup two years in succession since the mid-1980s (Real Madrid won the competition in 1985 and 1986). The now deceased Antonio Puerta and Daniel Jarque both started the match.
