The 1975 European Cup Winners' Cup final was a football match held at St. Jakob Stadium in Basel, Switzerland on 14 May 1975. It was the final match of the 1974–75 European Cup Winners' Cup – the 15th European Cup Winners' Cup final – and was contested by Dynamo Kyiv of the Soviet Union and Ferencváros of Hungary.

A brace from Vladimir Onishchenko and a goal from Oleg Blokhin saw Dynamo Kyiv win the match 3–0 to lift the trophy.

Background

Neither Dynamo Kyiv nor Ferencváros had contested a European Cup Winners' Cup final before. It was the second time a team from the Soviet Union had reached the final after Dynamo Moscow lost 3–2 to Rangers of Scotland in 1972. It was also the second time that a Hungarian team had reached the final after MTK Budapest lost to Sporting CP of Portugal in 1964.

Dynamo Kyiv lost to Celtic of Scotland in the quarter-finals on their only previous appearance in the European Cup Winners' Cup in 1965–66.

Ferencváros had played in the competition twice before, losing to Rangers of Scotland in the preliminary round in 1960–61 and Sparta Prague of Czechoslovakia in 1972–73.

Route to the final

Dynamo Kyiv qualified for the European Cup Winners' Cup by winning the 1974 Soviet Cup. In the first round, they defeated CSKA Sofia of Bulgaria 1–0 at home and away to advance 2–0 on aggregate. They then faced Eintracht Frankfurt of West Germany in the second round, winning 3–2 in Frankfurt and 2–1 in Kyiv to advance 5–3 on aggregate. In the quarter-finals, they faced Bursaspor of Turkey and again won both legs 1–0 away and 2–0 at home to advance 3–0 on aggregate. After beating PSV Eindhoven of the Netherlands 3–0 in the first leg at home, Dynamo Kyiv advanced to the final despite a 2–1 loss on the night (4–2 on aggregate).

Ferencváros qualified for the European Cup Winners' Cup by winning the 1973–74 Magyar Kupa. In the first round, they defeated Cardiff City of Wales 2–0 at home and 4–1 to advance 6–1 on aggregate. They faced Liverpool of England in the second round. After a 1–1 draw in Liverpool and a goalless draw in Budapest (1–1 on aggregate), Ferencváros advanced on away goals. After defeating Malmö FF of Sweden 3–1 in the first leg of the quarter-final, they drew 1–1 in the second leg in Budapest to advance to semi-finals 4–2 on aggregate.
