Celta de Vigo come into this at Balaídos with the more convincing recent home result, having beaten Elche 3-1, and that should give them a workable platform against a Levante side that has just conceded five away at Villarreal. The head-to-head record also leans towards Celta de Vigo, with wins in three of the last five meetings and only one defeat in that run. Levante have shown they can keep games tight, as seen in the 0-0 at Espanyol and the 1-0 win over Getafe, but their away output has been less reliable.
That scoreline fits the recent patterns for both teams, with Celta de Vigo scoring in four of their last five league matches and Levante failing to score in two of their last five league games. Celta de Vigo have also been involved in several narrow results, which points to a competitive match rather than a one-sided one. Levante’s best route looks to be staying compact and trying to make the most of limited chances, but the home side look slightly better placed to edge it.
Form Guide & Team Overview
Celta de Vigo
Celta de Vigo’s recent league form has been mixed, with two wins and three defeats across their last five. The most recent result was a 3-1 home win over Elche, which stands out after losses to Villarreal, FC Barcelona and Real Oviedo.
Their scoring record in that run has been uneven but not empty, with three goals against Elche and three away at Valencia in a 3-2 win. The concern is that they have also failed to score in two of those five league matches, so consistency in the final third remains an issue.

Levante
Levante’s recent league form has been patchy, with two wins, one draw and two defeats in their last five. Their latest result was a heavy 5-1 loss away to Villarreal, which sits in contrast to the 0-0 draw at Espanyol and the 2-0 home win over Sevilla.
They have kept things tighter in some matches, but the away numbers are less convincing, with defeats at Villarreal and Real Sociedad and no goals scored in two of those five league games. That suggests they can be organised, but they have not always carried enough threat on the road.

Team News & Injury Report
Celta de Vigo

Levante
- Iván Romero (Muscle Tear)
Lineups & Tactical Setup
Celta de Vigo (3-4-2-1)
Predicted lineup: Ionuț Radu (Goalkeeper), Javi Rodríguez (Defender), Yoel Lago (Defender), Álvaro Núñez (Defender), Fer López (Midfielder), Ilaix Moriba (Midfielder), Javi Rueda (Midfielder), Sergio Carreira (Midfielder), Ferran Jutglà (Attacker), Hugo Álvarez (Attacker), Iago Aspas (Attacker)
Celta de Vigo’s predicted 3-4-2-1 should give them width from the wing-backs and enough bodies between the lines to support the lone forward. With Ferran Jutglà and the two attacking midfielders operating close together, they can look to combine quickly in the final third.
Levante (4-1-4-1)
Predicted lineup: Mathew Ryan (Goalkeeper), Adrián Dela (Defender), Diego Pampín (Defender), Jeremy Toljan (Defender), Matías Moreno (Defender), Jon Ander Olasagasti (Midfielder), Pablo Martínez (Midfielder), Ugo Raghouber (Midfielder), Carlos Espí (Attacker), Kareem Tunde (Attacker), Víctor García (Attacker)
Levante’s predicted 4-1-4-1 gives them a clear holding midfielder screen in front of the defence, which should help them stay compact when Celta de Vigo have the ball. The shape also leaves Carlos Espí as the main outlet, so Levante will need their wide and central midfielders to support him quickly on transitions.
Key Battles & Players to Watch
| Celta de Vigo | Levante | Key Battle Overview |
|---|---|---|
| Celta de Vigo | Levante | Ferran Jutglà against Adrián Dela could be important if Celta de Vigo can get Jutglà receiving between the lines and turning towards goal. |
| Celta de Vigo | Levante | Fer López against Jon Ander Olasagasti may decide how much control Celta de Vigo have in central areas. |
| Celta de Vigo | Levante | Ferran Jutglà is key for Celta de Vigo because he gives them a direct attacking reference in a 3-4-2-1 and has a central role in their final-third play. |
| Celta de Vigo | Levante | Carlos Espí is key for Levante because he is the main attacking outlet in the 4-1-4-1 and will be central to any chance of Levante threatening away from home. |
