Levante vs Espanyol Predictions

Espanyol are the bet away at Levante on Sunday. The visitors have the better back line, having conceded 19 goals from their 18 games this season, compared to Levante’s 29 from 17. Furthermore, Levante have yet to keep a clean sheet at home in seven league games.

Espanyol are 14 places and 20 points above Levante in the table. The hosts sit 19th with three wins, four draws and ten losses from their 17 games, while Espanyol are fifth, having won ten, drawn three and lost five.

Levante are enduring a difficult run of results, having won just one of their last nine Primera Liga matches. They have now gone seven games without tasting victory at home in the league.

The hosts have been disappointing defensively at home this season, conceding 17 goals in seven home games – an average of 2.43 goals per game on their own patch. Levante have failed to keep a clean sheet in 17 of their last 20 Primera Liga games.

Espanyol are in good form, having won four of their last five away games in the Primera Liga. They have had five victories in their last six overall. In contrast, Levante are still without a home win this season after seven games.

A 2-0 win for Espanyol looks a decent correct-score option. Four of Levante’s last five Primera Liga games have had fewer than three goals and they have suffered three 2-0 losses in the league this season.
