Sevilla FC vs Real Betis Balompie Tickets

Sevilla FC vs Real Betis Balompie is one of the most competitive fixtures on the La Liga schedule as both sides hail from the same region of Spain. The Andalusian outfits compete in what is known as The Seville derby (Derbi Sevillano), or as also commonly known as The Great Derby (El Gran Derbi), which is all that is needed to build-up this particular match.

Sevilla are the most successful club to have come from the southern region of Spain, though, as they have managed to fill their trophy cabinet with a number of different pieces of silverware over the years. Whilst being one of the oldest clubs to have ever been established in the country has helped, Los Nervionenses have managed to acquire no fewer than six European titles with Unai Emery having led them on an extremely successful path during his time at the club. The club have also been successful domestically as well, with a minimum of five Spanish Cups and a league title also sitting in the trophy cabinet.

Los Verdiblancos have certainly had different fortunes to their city rivals throughout their history, as the club flip-flopped between La Liga and La Segunda Division over the years. Things got so bad for the club at one point, that fans created the motto: ¡Viva el Betis manque (aunque) pierda! ("Long live Betis even when they lose!"). However, Real Betis Balompie have started to make amends for time lost and have continued to strive for European football with each season that passes as they challenge some of the other established sides in Spain’s top-tier.

Nonetheless, the rivalry is still as intense as can be expected between two clubs from the same region as the Estadio Ramon Sanchez Pizjuan becomes extremely full very quickly with passionate supporters who make an atmosphere uncanny to those created elsewhere around the country. With the ability to hold 43,833 people in the stands, the experience is second-to-none and one that needs to be felt in person.

Sevilla have enjoyed this fixture more than their regional rivals over the years as they continue to dominate the encounters and do rather well when Real Betis Balompie make the short trip to their home. Previous results have included 2-0, 3-2 and 1-0. However, Los Verdiblancos did manage to record an emphatic 3-5 victory in 2018 that will stay in the minds of both sets of supporters for a very long time.

It is clear that Sevilla FC versus Real Betis Balompie is a match-up that can not be missed when played at the Estadio Ramon Sanchez Pizjuan as it is a derby like no other in the country as over 40,000 supporters get behind their sides to win bragging rights of Andalusia. With goals expected and an attacking style of play utilised, this particular encounter has all the ingredients to be an instant classic whenever it is played out on the field.
