European Cup balance sheet
In their eight appearances in the European Cup (between 1983/84 and 1992/93), the Ħamrun Spartans were able to prevail once against another team: in the 1984/85 European Cup Winners' Cup, both games were won against Ballymena United, which was also the only away win in European history is the Spartans. The team competed four times in the European Cup, where they lost seven out of eight games and failed to score their own goals in all defeats. Only the home game against Nëntori Tirana (1988/89) was won 2-1. The team played once in the UEFA Cup and lost to Dinamo Tirana, where they also failed to score (0-1 and 0-0). The remaining eight matches took place in the European Cup Winners' Cup, three of which were won, but none of the five defeats did not result in a personal goal. This means that a European Cup goal (which only happened in four out of 18 matches) always meant a win.
