Expected score: Villarreal 2-1 Levante
Villarreal hosts Levante in what promises to be a pivotal clash in La Liga's Regular Season - 7 on September 20, 2026, at Estadio de la Ceramica. With both teams currently near the bottom of the standings, each side will be keen to secure all three points to boost their season's prospects.
Team form
Villarreal
Villarreal's recent form shows some vulnerability despite a significant 3-1 win against Malaga in their last outing. However, they have struggled with consistency, recording only one win out of their last five matches (1W, 1D, 3L). Their attacking play totals 1.6 goals per game, while defensively, they concede an average of 1.8 goals. Key players have been stepping up, with Alberto Moleiro shining with a rating of 8.2 in the latest match and Ilias Akhomach contributing positively as well.
Levante
Levante has had a mixed start to the season, also aiming for a crucial victory to escape the lower ranks. Their last match ended in a 4-2 defeat at the hands of Barcelona, marking their second loss in a row. Throughout their last five games, they managed 1 win, 2 draws, and 2 losses (1W, 2D, 2L). While they have scored an average of 1.4 goals per game, the defensive struggle is evident as they too concede 1.8 goals per match.
Head-to-head
The recent head-to-head record between Villarreal and Levante favors Villarreal slightly, with their last five meetings resulting in 2 wins for Villarreal, 2 draws, and just one win for Levante. Recent matchups saw Villarreal winning 2-1 and putting up solid defensive performances which could lend them psychological advantage heading into this encounter.
Key factors
Both sides will need to adjust tactically due to their mid-table status contributing tension in this matchup. Villarreal may look to retain possession more effectively, as indicated by a statistic showing 63% possession in their recent match, using it to create goal-scoring opportunities. Levante, on the other hand, might adopt a more counter-attacking style due primarily to their lower possession percentage, emphasized by only 25% possession against Barcelona. Granular statistics such as shots on goal from each team suggest a fruitful attacking day for the home side may well cement their win.
Prediction
Villarreal has home advantage and has shown slightly more attack threat, alongside consistency in forming attacks based on recent statistics. Not to mention, they have home support to lift their performance significantly. The conditions have been more favorable as Levante struggles to maintain their momentum given their recent performances, making Villarreal a more reliable pick for the match.
Taking all this into account, a home win seems the most likely outcome as Villarreal aims to assert their dominance over struggling Levante.
