An iconic space of the city, due to the great importance that this site has among its inhabitants, being recognized as one of the most special places if soccer is concerned.

In April 2016, an agreement for the naming rights of the stadium was announced with the owners of the bet365 club, carrying the name bet365 Stadium.
Due to the fact that it has a capacity of less than 30 thousand seats, UEFA only awards it 4 stars.
