The 2007 UEFA Cup Final was a football match that took place on 16 May 2007 at Hampden Park in Glasgow, Scotland.

In an all-Spanish final, Sevilla defeated 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).

Sevilla also won the 2006–07 Copa del Rey a month later.
