Levante are hoping to win again following the 0-3 La Liga victory vs Sevilla.

In that match, Levante managed 35% possession and 6 attempts at goal with 4 on target. For Levante, the scorers were Losada (45'), Espí (77') and Álvarez (94'). On the other side, Sevilla got 15 shots on goal with 7 on target.

Fewer than three goals per match were scored during 5 of the last 6 meetings where Levante have taken part. With regard to the goal distribution during this period, opposition teams scored a total of 6 while Levante got themselves 5. Such a pattern isn’t assured to be sustained here, of course.

Heading into this fixture, Levante are winless against Espanyol in their previous 4 league games.

Espanyol

WLWWWL

Following on from being beaten in their last game against Barcelona in La Liga competition, Espanyol and their fans will hope to get a better result this time.

In that match, Espanyol had 31% possession and 14 attempts on goal with 7 of them on target. At the other end, Barcelona had 15 shots at goal with 6 on target. Olmo (86') and Robert Lewandowski (90') scored for Barcelona.

A tendency of at least one side getting a clean sheet in games involving Espanyol has become evident of late. Examining their last 6 outings shows that it’s happened 5 times. During those clashes, their opponents have hit a goal total of 4 while Espanyol have scored 5.

Their previous form shows that Espanyol:

• remain unbeaten by Levante in games played away from home for the previous 5 league matches. A very decent away record against them.
• are undefeated in their previous 3 away league matches.

📋 Team News: Levante

In all likelihood, Levante will possibly employ a 4-2-3-1 system in the match, handing starts to Mathew Ryan, Jeremy Toljan, Adrian De La Fuente, Matias Moreno, Diego Pampin, Pablo Martinez, Kervin Arriaga, Kareem Tunde, Carlos Alvarez, Iker Losada and Ivan Romero.

📰 Team News: Espanyol

We are inclined to think that Periquitos seem likely to utilise a 4-4-2 formation, settling for Marko Dmitrovic, Omar El Hilali, Fernando Calero, Leandro Cabrera, Carlos Romero, Jofre Carreras, Edu Exposito, U. Gonzalez de, Tyrhys Dolan, Kike Garcia and Pere Milla.

💭 Prediction

We believe that Levante might need a bit of good fortune to find the net against this Espanyol team who we think might end up scoring and possibly keep a clean sheet as well.

We’re therefore predicting a very competitive game with a 0-1 victory for Espanyol after 90 minutes.

Let’s see how it plays out.
