Why don’t UEFA Cup fixtures not have the same gap in time between matches as Champions League games?
I don’t understand why this is done. For example look at the Chelsea v Spurs match from Sunday; Spurs have a packed schedule with FA Cup, UEFA Cup, and domestic fixtures all occuring with days of one another. The UEFA Cup matches are set a week apart, but the Champions League matches are set every other week allowing a more relaxed schedule. Why can’t this be done in the UEFA Cup as well?
