Clubs from the Premier League have met teams from LaLiga eight times so far in the Champions League this season and the Spanish clubs are yet to record a single victory.

In past years, it appeared that clubs from England placed more emphasis on domestic titles than on continental ones, but that has begun to change. 

The top sides in England have become more aware that Europe is ultimately where greatness is judged. 

In the group stage, Sevilla drew with Liverpool in both of their matches; the one at Anfield produced a scoreline of 2-2, while the one at the Estadio Sanchez Pizjuan ended in an incredible score of 3-3.

Atletico Madrid are the only Spanish team no longer in the competition, but they faced Chelsea in the group stage and were defeated at home, before drawing at Stamford Bridge. 

Real Madrid also ran into English opposition in group stage in the form of Tottenham. The London club were able to take a point at the Estadio Santiago Bernabeu, before crushing Zinedine Zidane's team 3-1 at Wembley. 

In the knockout rounds, Barcelona and Sevilla have crossed paths with Chelsea and Manchester United respectively and the Catalans earned a 1-1 draw against Chelsea, while Jose Mourinho's men grabbed a point in a scoreless draw in Seville.
