2012–13 UEFA Europa League qualification play-off match

Beşiktaş (the fourth-placed team of the Champions League group) and the winners of the Europa League group would play for a spot in the second qualifying round of the 2012–13 UEFA Europa League. But the match was cancelled as Bursaspor, the 2011–12 Turkish Cup finalists against Champions League-qualified Fenerbahçe, wins the Europa League group. Bursaspor lost the cup final, and as a result, they qualified for the Europa League second qualifying round, and Beşiktaş qualified for the Europa League third qualifying round. But on 30 May 2012; UEFA banned Beşiktaş one year from UEFA competitions, so UEFA Europa League spots shifted down. Bursaspor were also initially banned from entering the Europa League, but this was overturned by the Court of Arbitration for Sport.
