Unlike Burnley they weren't new to the competition having twice played
in it previously, in seasons 1955/56 and 1958/59 when, on both
occasions, they were beaten by Real Madrid in the final.
The club had no fewer than ten full internationals on their books and it
was thought they would provide formidable opposition for Burnley who
were enjoying European football for the first time.
Only one country could ever have two teams in the competition, the
holders plus that country's champions. That, on this occasion, was Úö
Spain with Real Madrid and Barcelona and the two teams were paired
against each other.
The full draw was:
