CD Badajoz play at Estadio Nuevo Vivero, which has a capacity of 15,200, which can be expanded to 30,000. They previously played at Estadio El Vivero, in the east of the city, before moving a few kilometres south of the Guadiana in 1998 to the new facilities. The first match at Nuevo Vivero was on 2 December 1998, in a friendly goalless match against neighbours CF Extremadura.
The stadium has hosted two full internationals for the Spanish national team. On 8 September 1999, Spain beat Cyprus 8-0 in an Euro 2000 qualifier. Nearly seven years later, on 2 September 2006, the national side beat Liechtenstein 4-0, in a qualification contest for Euro 2008.

[edit] History
Formed from the merger of two clubs, named Racing and Sport, the club became a serious member of the Spanish leagues in 1931, when Don Francisco Fernandes Marquesta donated the team their first ground, named El Vivero. Subsequently playing most of their history between the Tercera and Segunda División, the club achieved a consistent stay in the second level during the 90's.
Never quite good enough to reach the top flight, 11 seasons in the second division came to an end in 2004, with relegation to Segunda División B. In 2006 they were saved from folding by the President of a junior club from Badajoz, AD Cerro de Reyes Badajoz Atlético, who replaced them in the third level, with Badajoz falling to the fourth.
