Levante form and stats

0 victories, 3 draws and 1 defeat. That’s what Levante, who have the most conceded goals (18) in La Liga, have to build on here at Estadio Ciudad de Valencia in the La Liga. All in all it has been a very rough period for Levante who hasn’t won a league-game in their last ten attempts. Their previous win was against Cadiz, 75 days ago.

Levante lost their last game at Sevilla (placed 3rd) after a 3-5 scoreline. As you can tell by the result above, the goals flowed freely in the previous game and the stadium rocked. Could there be another goal fest today? Aitor Fernández had a busy but productive day in the Sevilla match. Despite making six saves the loss could not be prevented. The attacking player José Luis Morales was declared "man of the match" for Levante with a rating of 8.6/10. Morales scored two goals, hit one key pass, dribled past the opponent 4 of 6 times and had 20 successful passes (of 24 total).

Preceding that game was the home draw versus Getafe that ended 0-0.

Another home game is coming up fairly shortly for the hosts, as Granada are coming to town in four days.

Levante are certainly not overdoing their scoring at home in league matches, having created 4 goals in 4 games. With more than 1,5 conceded goals on average, the Levante defense is not exactly impregnable. 6 goals conceded from 4 games. You can find more goal stats on the Statistics tab above.
