Villarreal vs Levante Betting Tips and Predictions

The Yellow Submarine appears to be on a relentless march towards a top four finish and a place in next season’s Champions League. They are unbeaten in 12 matches in the league and picked up an excellent point at the Vicente Calderon last weekend. They also made good progress in Europe seeing off Napoli on Thursday night to make the last 16.

Levante make the short trip across the Valencian Community more in hope than expectation you feel. They were 3-0 winners against Getafe in their last league match but had lost their previous 3 games and are 4 points off safety in 19th place. With a home game against Real Madrid and trip to San Sebastian still to come this week, Levante are in serious danger of getting cut adrift over the next 7 days unless they can spring a surprise in at least one of the games.

Reason for Betting Tips

Backing Villarreal to win at 4/6 looks a safe bet here. It is rare that you find a team that is all but keeping pace with the Madrid giants to be such long odds to win a home game against a side in the bottom 3. Villarreal have only dropped points in 3 of their last 15 La Liga home matches and they’ve won 6 of the previous 7. Levante have lost all of their last 6 away games.
