The Frogs are also winless in their nine matches at home in La Liga having recorded four defeats and five draws.
“They [Sevilla] looked like a great team to me. I saw them fighting and it is not because they beat my team, Levante, today, but because we all watched Sevilla," Levate manager Javi Pereira said following his side's defeat to Sevilla.
"We had a lot of chances against them. It is a very well-managed team, with many automatisms, that works all the phases of the game. They attack as a team, they work and they are fast in the attack. They are good at the defensive transition.
"They are good at set-pieces. Then when we are talking about top teams and you see teams in Europe that are similar to them."
