Levante vs Atlético: team news and expert analysis
The club from the Valencia suburbs were promoted from the Segunda División in 2025 and only just managed to preserve their top-flight status: they collected the same 42 points as relegated Mallorca but finished 16th. They are once again battling for survival this season, having managed just one win at the start—an unexpected 5-2 triumph over Betis. Two rounds ago, they added a 3-1 victory over Athletic Club, but then went down to Real Sociedad.
The capital giants were focused on the Champions League and Copa del Rey last season, where they knocked out Barcelona. However, they lost to Arsenal in the former's semi-finals, while the decisive cup clash ended with Real Sociedad lifting the trophy. At the same time, they surrendered their customary third place in La Liga to Villarreal. They struggled at the start this season, but managed to hit their stride from mid-September onward. They also defeated Deportivo. In the Champions League, they began with a defeat but then beat Manchester United. Against Stuttgart, though, they had to settle for a draw.
Thiago Fernández and company score 1.6 goals per round but concede 1.9. With two goals per match at the opposition end, the Madrid side are traditionally solid in defence, conceding just 0.8 per game.
