A trip to Seville where once again three points are essential to prevent the gap at the top of the table from getting any wider than it is already
**Where are they from?**
Betis (alongside Sevilla) is one of two Liga teams from the fourth-largest city in Spain, Seville, where they share one of the most famous rivalries in world football. The magnificent city is the capital of the southernmost province on the European mainland, Andalusia. It is home to the world-famous Alcázar palace and very much typifies the ‘real’ Spain of flamenco, bullfighting, and very hot temperatures.
**History**
Founded in 1907, ‘Betis’ was the name of the former Roman province, while ‘Balompié’ is a literal translation of the English term ‘football’. As Andalusian workers migrated around Spain looking for work in the 20th century, they took their love for Betis with them, and the club’s green and white emblems are still commonplace in neighborhoods all around the country today.
**The Stadium**
Estadio Benito Villamarín is a stadium in Seville, Spain, and the home of Real Betis since its completion in 1929. It has a capacity of 60,720.
