The 1978–79 Swiss League Cup was the seventh edidition of the Swiss League Cup competition since its introduction in 1972. The first and second rounds were played in summer 1978 as a pre-season warm-up to the 1978–79 Swiss football season, the later rounds were played after the winter-break.

Overview

[edit]

The League Cup had been created six seasons earlier to allow clubs from the top two tiers to compete in a tournament in advance of the league season, with the semi-finals and final played in the Autumn. However, this planning was given up and modified. This season the first two rounds were played in advance of the season and the later rounds were played in the second half of the league season. This year the format was also modified, the first round was played as a two legged affair, however, the teams that competed in the 1978 Intertoto Cup played only a single tie, which was held on a neutral ground. In the remainder of the competition, the matches were played in a single knockout format.

In the event of a draw after 90 minutes, the match went into extra time. In the event of a draw at the end of extra time, a penalty shoot-out was to decide which team qualified for the next round. No replays were foreseen.
