[edit] UEFA-Cup qualification spots
According to the 2008-09 UEFA coefficients, only the 2nd place team would receive a spot in the UEFA-Cup qualification. However, as this season's Austrian Cup is held without the teams from Bundesliga and First League (in order to end the season earlier and give the Austrian national squad more time to prepare for the EURO 2008), the ÖFB will award the Cup winner's qualification spot to the 3rd place team of the Bundesliga.
On its official site, the ÖFB states that the European Cup spot 2008/09 which is scheduled to go to the Austrian Cup winner will go to the next best placed team in the League. ("Der für den Cupsieger vorgesehene Platz im Europapokal 2008/09 geht dann an den nächstbestplatzierten Klub in der Meisterschaft.")
Therefore, in 2008/09, the 2nd and 3rd place teams of 2007/08 will play in the UEFA Cup Qualification, the 4th place team of 2007/08 will play in the UEFA Intertoto Cup.
