LEGANES VS LEVANTE PREVIEW & PREDICTION

There is no clear favorite on this occasion, as the two teams are compact and rough between the lines. For this reason and knowing that the box “cucumber” is difficult to overcome in Butarque, we believe that the game can end in his favor. Remember that the “blues” managed to ensure permanence, perhaps relaxing a little in this exit. Of course, despite everything, it paints to be a closed duel in the midfield.

Leganés:

The “pepineros” lost 2-1 before the substitutes of Real Madrid in the Bernabéu, but they gave hard battle until the end. These days, they have 40 units in total, located in the lower part of the table. His goal is to close the championship well, trying to score more and climb a couple of places in the competition. In spite of everything, they are still combative and tactical at the moment of marking.

As a local, Leganés has added various results in Butarque, standing out for being a combative eleven despite his limitations (8 wins, 4 draws and 5 falls, scoring 16 goals and conceding 14 in his vallla). It comes to beat Malaga 2-0, to overcome Sevilla 2-1, to lose 0-1 with Valencia, to defeat Celta 1-0 and to equal 0-0 with Deportivo.

Levante:

After beating Sevilla 2-1 at home, Levante secured his stay in the Spanish first division. The team was another in the last two months, noticing a big change since the leadership decided to change the coach. It is enough to know that he registered 6 victories, 1 draw and 1 defeat in his last 8 presentations to corroborate this statement.

Far from its stadium, Levante has registered not very encouraging markers, except for some other important victory in this final streak of the championship (3 wins, 7 parities and 7 falls, scoring 14 goals and conceding 26 in their goal). His last departures were as follows: 1-0 defeat with Alavés, 0-1 triumph against Getafe, 1-1 draw with Girona, 3-0 defeat against Atlético de Madrid and 1-3 victory against Athletic Bilbao.

The last time the two teams collided was a few months ago and the result ended up being a goalless equality in the Levante field (December 2017). In the field of Leganés, they do not play since the distant 2003. That time the match culminated 0-0.


PREDICTION: Leganes to win @ 2.15
