Sevilla FC is gearing up for an unusual and decisive Feria Thursday, facing a crucial away game that could mark a turning point in their fight for permanence in Spanish football's top tier.

The Nervión club will play a transcendental match at the Ciutat de Valencia, a date historically linked to European achievements for the club. However, the current reality is different, and the main objective is to secure permanence in the top division, a challenge that the squad and coaching staff are taking with utmost seriousness.
Over the years, Feria Thursday has witnessed memorable moments for Sevilla FC. In 2006, a goal by Antonio Puerta against Schalke 04 opened the doors to the club's first European final, which would culminate in the conquest of the UEFA Cup. Ten years later, in 2016, the team overcame Athletic in a thrilling penalty shootout, on their way to another Europa League title in Basel.
Even defeats on this date have had a bittersweet taste, such as the one suffered in 2007 against Osasuna in the first leg of the UEFA Cup semifinals, which Sevilla managed to overturn in the return leg to advance to the title. In 2015, a two-all draw against Zenit in Saint Petersburg was also key to reaching the semifinals and, ultimately, lifting another trophy.
Throughout the 21st century, Sevilla FC has played a total of 29 matches during Feria week, with a record of 12 wins, five draws, and 12 losses. In recent years, the streak has been positive, with important victories in 2023 and 2024, although it was interrupted last year with a defeat against Celta de Vigo.
This year, the Feria will be intense for Sevilla fans, who will follow the two away matches (Thursday in Valencia and Sunday in El Sadar) with the hope that the team will secure the necessary points to ensure their permanence in the top category of Spanish football.
