Sevilla v Leganes - Copa Del Ray Semi Final: Second Leg
Sevilla have lost just one home game in all competitions this season

Sevilla's home turf has always proved to be one of the most difficult away trips for each team in La Liga. The atmosphere, the noise, the closeness of the pitch from the huge stands make it a nightmare for the opponents to play at the Ramon Sanchez Pizjuan stadium.

The Rojiblancos have been stellar at home this season and have not lost a home match in the Champions League this time around. It includes that famous comeback against Liverpool where they managed to claw back from a 3-0 halftime deficit to end the match 3-3.

They have also lost just one home game this season, a 3-5 loss to bitter rivals Real Betis. Also, Sevilla have a 72% home win record in the Champions League for any team having played more than 15 games in the competition, bettered only by Real Madrid (73%).

On a European night, the Pizjuan can prove to be one of the most haunting experiences for an opposing player. During their hattrick haul of winning the Europa League, they had a killer home record in the knockout stages and will look to replicate that tomorrow against Manchester United.
