Levante UD, Recent FormLevante UD manager Javier Calleja will be looking for a better result in this game following a disappointing 1-1 draw in his team's last league outing against Real Oviedo. Their share of possession in that meeting was 73%, while racking up 17 shots along the way, 4 of which were on target, in contrast to Real Oviedo, who had 11 shots on goal with 2 on target.
Calleja will be reasonably pleased with his team's performances in front of goal, having scored 11 goals in their last 6 games, but will want to tighten up his defence with 7 goals conceded in the same period. They have scored in 5 of their last 6 home games, but they have failed to keep a clean sheet in 5 of their last 6 games overall.
They have been performing well recently, both home and away, and remain unbeaten in their last 7 games.
Having scored 4 goals in his last 6 league games for Levante UD, Mohamed Bouldini will be looking to keep his tally up with a goal in their next outing.
Espanyol, Recent FormHaving taken all 3 points, with a crucial 3-2 home win over Amorebieta in their last league game, Espanyol will undoubtedly be very satisfied with their work. They came away from that fixture with a 59% share of the possession and clocked up 21 attempts on goal with 7 on target, in comparison to Amorebieta, who managed 7 attempts on goal, 4 of which were on target.
It's been a rewarding period in front of goal, with 12 goals scored in their last 6 matches; that said, boss Luis García will be less happy with his defence, who have conceded 8 goals in the same period. Their goal scoring streak away from home now stands at 16 games in a row, but they've failed to keep a clean sheet in 5 of their last 6 when on their travels.
Their strong run of form, both away and at home now gives them an unbeaten streak of 8 games in a row.
Fernando Calero will be keen to add his name to the scoresheet and build on his current scoring record of 3 goals in the last 6 league games for Espanyol.
In the most recent meeting between these teams, they both managed to find the net, but the game finished in a 1-1 draw.
Periquitos will feel sure their attacking prowess will yield results in this one, having scored at least 1 goal in the previous 7 encounters with Levante.
In the league, Espanyol have been unbeaten in the last 4 times they have visited Levante at The Estadio Ciutat de Valencia.
Javi Puado has scored in each of Espanyol's last 0 league games against Levante.
There is only really one injury concern for the Levante manager Javier Calleja ahead of this clash, with Dani Gómez (Ankle) missing out, which gives Calleja a strong squad to pick his starting eleven from.
Espanyol manager Luis García has no real injury worries ahead of this clash.
