Analysis

Jon Ander Olasagasti also contributes both goals and assists at home, adding to Levante's midfield threat. Athletic's Robert Navarro and Iñaki Williams provide attacking sparks, but Levante's defensive solidity, led by Manu Sánchez's tackling prowess, should keep Los Leones at bay. The absence of Levante's key attacker Etta Eyong due to injury slightly reduces their attacking depth but does not overshadow their current momentum.
