Overview edit

There were four participants from Italy, these being Hellas Verona,[1] Lazio,[2] Sampdoria and Varese and there were four from Switzerland: Lugano, Lausanne Sports, Winterthur and FC Basel.[3] Two teams from each country were drawn into each of the two groups. Within the group each team played the two clubs of the other country twice, but did not play compatriots. The Italians and the Swiss each formed their own league table and the winners from each country then matched themselves in the final.[4]
