Levante form and stats

Levante have collected 22 points from their La Liga home games so far after 5-7-3.

It's back home for Levante, who return with a good feeling about themselves after beating Eibar away with the result 1-0. Jorge de Frutos found the net in that victory. Ahead of that match, Levante lost 0-2 at home to Huesca.

The match schedule is unforgiving for Levante as they have a new game in only three days, a La Liga match thankfully also at home. Sevilla are visiting.

Levante are certainly not overdoing their scoring at home in league matches, having created 21 goals in 15 games. It's been trouble in front of goal recently, as only 2 of these goals has been scored in their last three home matches. On the other hand, Levante have conceded 19 goals.

Villarreal form and stats

The visitors are W5-D7-L3 on the road this term. That's in the La Liga. Villarreal has recorded two wins in a row in their away matches and hold legitimate hopes of a third one.

Gerard Moreno and Paco Alcácer scored in Villarreal's previous match, the home game against Dinamo Zagreb that ended 2-1. Preceding that, the 1-2 home loss versus Osasuna.

There might be some complaints about the fixture list from the Villarreal manager U. Emery Etxegoien as the team has another away game coming up in only three days, this time against Deportivo Alaves.

Villarreal have a decent goal production going in their away games, although not fantastic. In 15 league away games 22 goals have been scored. 16 goals have been conceded by Villarreal in these games.

Head 2 Head

The last H2H meeting was Villarreal - Levante 2-1, played this season. Levante-Villarreal H2H statistics last ten meetings regardless of arena: Levante four wins, Villarreal five wins, one draw. six of these ten matches had three or more goals (over 2,5).
