^ abThe Maccabi Petah Tikva v Heerenveen first leg, was originally scheduled for 22 September 2004, a week later than the other first round ties due to scheduling issues with Maccabi Tel Aviv's Champions League group stage home match against Bayern Munich. However, the first leg was later cancelled due to a general strike in Israel. As a result, what was originally the second leg, hosted by Heerenveen, became the sole match of a single-leg tie. In the match, the away goals rule did not apply.[2]
