The upcoming clash between Levante UD and RC Celta de Vigo marks a critical encounter for both clubs as they look to distance themselves from the lower reaches of the La Liga table. Levante, playing in front of their home supporters at the Estadi Ciutat de València, are yet to secure a victory on their own turf this season, a statistic they will be desperate to overturn.
Meanwhile, RC Celta de Vigo arrives with a better run of recent form, finding momentum with an important first league win and strong performances in European competition, suggesting an upward trajectory. This fixture promises to be a highly competitive affair with both sides possessing attacking quality but struggling with defensive consistency, setting the stage for an open and goal-filled contest.

Team Form and Analysis for Levante
Domestic Form and European Performance
Levante’s return to the top flight has been characterized by offensive flair paired with severe defensive vulnerabilities. After 10 league matches, they sit in 15th position with 9 points (2 Wins, 3 Draws, 5 Losses), level on points with the relegation zone. Their goal-scoring record of 14 goals is respectable for a newly-promoted side, but the 18 goals conceded is among the worst in the division, highlighting a structural issue that manager Julián Calero needs to address.
Crucially, their home form is a significant concern, having failed to secure a win in their first four league games at the Ciutat de València (1 Draw, 3 Losses). While they picked up a recent win in the Copa del Rey, their domestic performances, including a recent 1-1 draw away at Mallorca, show an ability to secure points on the road that contrasts sharply with their struggles at home.
Key Player
Etta Eyong is undoubtedly the focal point of the Levante attack. The young forward has quickly established himself as a prolific scorer in La Liga, netting 5 goals in the first 10 matches. His pace, directness, and clinical finishing will be essential if Levante are to break down a Celta side that has been defensively sound in their recent outings. Eyong’s ability to capitalize on the counter-attack could be the key to unlocking Celta’s defense.
Team Form and Analysis for Celta Vigo
Domestic Form and European Performance
RC Celta de Vigo has endured a season defined by draws, having recorded 7 draws, 1 win, and 2 losses in their 10 La Liga matches. This sees them sitting just above Levante in 13th position with 10 points. While their high number of draws suggests resilience and difficulty to beat, it also points to a lack of a decisive edge to convert one point into three.
The team has recently shown significant improvement, going unbeaten in their last five matches across all competitions, including three victories and two draws. Their first league win came in a thrilling 3-2 away victory at Osasuna, which followed successful results in the UEFA Europa League, demonstrating a building confidence and cohesion under manager Claudio Giráldez. Their away record in the league is relatively solid, with 5 points from 4 games.
Key Player
The perennial talisman for Celta Vigo remains Iago Aspas. Even as he enters the twilight of his career, Aspas is vital to Celta’s attacking productivity, often dictating the tempo and creativity in the final third. While Borja Iglesias has been the leading goalscorer with 4 goals, Aspas’s experience and track record against Levante (having 12 goal contributions in previous meetings) make him the player most likely to influence the outcome. His vision and clever movement will be crucial in exploiting the spaces left by Levante’s leaky defense.
Head-to-Head Record between the Teams
The head-to-head record between the two sides has been closely contested in recent years, often resulting in tight matches. Celta Vigo has the slight edge in the overall La Liga matchups, but draws are a common result.

Celta Vigo is currently unbeaten in their last four matches against Levante (2 Wins, 2 Draws), with the last meeting ending in a 1-1 draw.
Players to Watch
Etta Eyong (Levante): The young striker is in fine form, second in the league’s scoring charts. His pace and finishing make him a constant threat, and he will look to test Celta’s backline with direct running.
Iago Aspas (Celta Vigo): The veteran forward remains the heartbeat of Celta’s creative play. His ability to link midfield and attack, along with his dead-ball expertise, makes him a key danger man.
Jeremy Toljan (Levante): The right-back leads his team in ‘Big Chances Created’ (6), indicating a major source of Levante’s attacking threat comes from his forward runs and crosses. His defensive duties, however, will be heavily scrutinized.
Borja Iglesias (Celta Vigo): The target man offers a physical presence up front and has been Celta’s most consistent goalscorer this season, netting 4 goals. He will be vital for holding up the ball and converting chances created by Aspas and the midfield.
Prediction
Analysis of the Likely Outcome
This fixture pits Levante’s high-risk, high-reward attacking style against Celta Vigo’s recently improved form and defensive solidity. The most compelling factor is Levante’s dismal home record this season, where they have consistently conceded two or more goals. Coupled with Celta’s current momentum and their solid away record, the visitors appear well-equipped to capitalize on the hosts’ vulnerabilities.
Given that both teams have shown a tendency for goals in their recent fixtures (with Both Teams to Score being a strong trend for Celta in particular), an open match with chances at both ends is highly probable. Celta’s resilience and the form of their key players give them a slight but clear advantage.
