Luis García Plaza's team plays their fourth friendly match this Sunday, July 26 at 21:00 in the Jesús Navas Stadium, behind closed doors.
Sevilla FC faces their fourth pre-season match this Sunday, July 26, a clash against AD Ceuta FC that will serve as the final test on home soil before travelling to the Netherlands. The match, which will kick off at 21:00, will take place in the Jesús Navas Stadium, within the José Ramón Cisneros Palacios Sports City, and will be held without fans.
The Seville team, led by Luis García Plaza, approaches this fixture with the aim of fine-tuning their preparations for the start of LaLiga 2026-27, which will begin on August 15 against Rayo Vallecano. After several weeks of intense physical training, the coaching staff is now looking to adjust tactical concepts in a competitive match.
This friendly concludes the series of tests in Spain before the squad travels to Garderen (Netherlands) for an international training camp. There, the team will face NEC Nijmegen and FC Utrecht, marking the final stretch of their summer preparation.
So far, the pre-season record stands at one win, one loss, and one draw with a penalty shootout victory. In the first test, Sevilla won 1-0 against Juventud de Torremolinos, with a goal from youth player Miguel Sierra. Subsequently, during the tour in Poland, they lost by the same scoreline to KS Cracovia. The last commitment was against Córdoba CF in the Trofeo Puertas de Córdoba, where the team triumphed in the penalty shootout after a draw in regular time.
