Find previous div before specific element of class

Ok so i have this

<div id="stadiumSeats1" class="fans eleven"></div>
<div id="stadium1" class="team activeteam eleven"><div>

Now what i want to do is find the first "activeteam" class and then target the previous div to that, in this scenario that would be stadiumSeats1

I tried using

$('.activeteam').prev('div');
$('.activeteam')[0].prev('div');

fwiw i am using hopscotch tour and my aim is to target that specific div.

I can access the stadium1 div fine with

$('.activeteam')[0];

But its the div before it i need. Theres lots of examples out there for $('#activeteam').prev('div');

But this is a bit different because im trying to access a particular element of a class so not sure how to structure it.

$($('div').get($('div').index($('.activeteam'))-1))
