How many La Liga teams are in Seville?

There are currently two La Liga teams in Seville – Real Betis and Sevilla.

Sevilla F.C.

Sevilla F.C. is the elder of Seville’s La Liga pair, founded in 1890. They compete at the Ramon Sanchez Pizjuan, a 43,000-capacity ground that sits at the heart of the club’s identity and stands as one of Europe’s most atmospheric football venues.

The club’s trophy cabinet brims with European pedigree. They have won La Liga once (1945–46), four Segunda Division titles, five Copa del Rey crowns, and a Supercopa de Espana. However, Sevilla’s greatest claim to European glory lies in the UEFA Europa League, a competition they have dominated with seven titles, more than any other club in the tournament’s history. Their most recent triumph came in the 2022–23 season.

The 2024–25 campaign brought turbulence, as Sevilla narrowly avoided relegation to finish 17th in La Liga. That near-disaster proved a turning point. In 2025–26, the club steadied itself to finish 13th, signalling a return to stability after one of their most challenging seasons in recent memory.

Real Betis trace their roots to 1907, establishing themselves among Spain’s most consistent competitors. They call the Benito Villamarin home, a 60,720-capacity stadium that has stood as a fortress for Los Verdiblancos since its opening in 1929.

The ground is currently undergoing a major renovation project and will not reopen until the 2028–29 season, during which time Real Betis are temporarily playing at Estadio de la Cartuja.

Betis’s honours include a solitary La Liga title (1934–35), achieved in the club’s early years. They have claimed seven Segunda Division crowns and three Copa del Rey trophies, alongside one Copa Federacion de Espana title. While their domestic silverware pales beside Sevilla’s, Real Betis achieved a landmark moment in 2025–26 when they finished fifth in La Liga, securing qualification to the UEFA Champions League for the first time in 21 years, a significant milestone in the club’s modern history.
