Match Preview

Alaves offer better recent results and won the last league meeting. Multiple Levante absences and defensive suspension increase Alaves' chances on the road.

Key Notes

Prediction: Alaves to win or at least spoil Levante at home. Why: While Levante are playing at home, their season form is fragile - 4 wins, 6 draws, 15 losses - and they enter this fixture with a number of defensive and midfield absences. Alaves present a slightly stronger away record with 7 wins, 6 draws and 12 losses and have already beaten Levante 2-1 in the opening round of this season, giving them a tangible psychological edge.

Injuries and suspensions: Levante will miss K. Arriaga to suspension after a red card and also have doubts over key players like R. Brugue and P. Martinez who are sidelined with knee injuries; others are listed as questionable. Those losses particularly weaken Levante’s defensive stability and midfield cohesion. Alaves have fewer serious absences - M. Diaz is out by coach’s decision and V. Koski is questionable - so they arrive with more of their core available.

H2H: Recent encounters include an Alaves 2-1 victory at home in the league opener and several tightly contested matches. Historically the pair have traded results, but the most relevant recent win went to Alaves, indicating they can get a result in the region.

Tactical view: Levante’s home advantage is mitigated by injury problems and suspension which could force makeshift defensive pairings. Alaves are capable on the counter and have the personnel to exploit left gaps, particularly if Levante must shuffle defensive roles.

Caveat: Levante at home can still nick a result, and their crowd can help; this is not a high‑certainty pick. The selection leans on Levante’s injury/suspension list and Alaves’ recent H2H success. Expect a tight game where Alaves can profit from Levante’s absences.
