Leganes vs Levante Predictions

La Liga’s bottom-of-the-table strugglers Leganes will host the side with the worst away record in La Liga this Saturday. La Liga’s early kick-off sees Levante travel to Leganes. Leganes will see this weekend’s game as an opportunity to get some much-needed points on the board. 

Meanwhile, Levante will be hoping to put an end to their poor run of away form. Levante have had a decent start to the season. They are yet to lose a single home game, after playing 4. However, Levante have lost all 3 games they have played away from home thus far. 

Levante will have no better opportunity to get their first away points of the season than in this weekend’s game. They will face a Leganes side who are yet to win a single game all season. Leganes have managed to pick up just 2 points so far this season. 

We feel that this game is very unlikely to deliver a lot of goals as neither of these sides have been prolific in front of goal this season. Leganes are La Liga’s lowest scorers. They have managed to score just 3 goals from their opening 7 games of the season. 

Levante have similarly struggled in front of goal. They have scored less than 1.5 goals in 4 of their 7 games this season. They will not have an easy time in front of Leganes’ goal this Saturday. 

Despite being at the bottom of the table, Leganes have not exactly been leaking goals. They have conceded more than once in a game in just 2 of their 7 games. They have not been involved in high-scoring affairs this season and have had three 1-0 losses, and two 1-1 draws. 

On top of their current form, this fixture has historically not produced a lot of goals. This game has been played 4 times in the last 2 seasons. Leganes have scored just once in those 4 games. Meanwhile, Levante failed to score in 2 of those 4 games. 

Both teams have not scored in this game in any of their last 8 meetings. The last time both teams scored in this fixture was April 2002. Given the history of this fixture, as well as both teams’ current form, we feel that both teams are very unlikely to score in this game.

Neither of these teams have shown a lot of quality in front of goal recently. Both teams goal-scoring stats back up this claim and we feel that this game appears to have 0-0 draw written all over it.
