Sevilla are one of the top clubs in Spain and Europe. The Andalusians have won only one La Liga title, but have created quite a splash in Europe, especially in the UEFA Europa League.

Los Nervionenses' last and only league triumph came in 1945-46. Since then, they have finished second twice, the last being over six decades ago. However, the five-time Copa Del Rey winners are record six-time winners of the UEFA Cup/Europa League.

Regulars in the Spanish top flight since the turn of the century (2001-02), Sevilla have had many great players turn out for them over the years. However, many opponent players, especially goalscorers, have had success against Los Nervionenses too.
