The first match will take place on 20 February 2014 in "Ljudski vrt" in Maribor. Prior to this season Sevilla had to sell a large number of its players due to the club’s financial problems. Manchester City paid EUR 40 million in compensation for two Sevilla FC players, namely Alvaro Negredo and Jesus Navas. But now the club has some young talents. It’s currently 7th in the Spanish championships. Maribor qualified for the second stage of the UEFA Europa League for the first time in club history by defeating Wigan Athletic of England at home last week.
