Levante's Last Stand Against Donostia's Inconsistency
Moyen Score Futmetrix: 47/100. A match where Levante's survival instincts collide with Real Sociedad's inability to capitalise on favourable positions—a six-pointer that feels like a five-pointer.
The Setup
The Stakes are existential for one, routine for the other. Levante occupies 19th place with nine points and a form line that reads like a horror film: LLLLD. Four consecutive defeats. Zero home wins in six matches. The defensive numbers are alarming—2.7 goals conceded per game at the Estadio de la Cerámica, a statistic that screams vulnerability against any competent attack.
Real Sociedad arrives as the favourites, tenth-placed with 16 points, but their own Form is a patchwork. They've won two of their last five, yet possess genuine attacking threat. Mikel Oyarzabal has been their salvation—three goals and two assists in four matches (7.5 average rating)—while Ander Barrenetxea provides width and intent. Mathew Ryan's 20 saves in five games suggests the defensive line is porous.
Key Battle
Real Sociedad's wide attacking corridor versus Levante's frantic full-back coverage. If Oyarzabal and Barrenetxea control the flanks, Levante's shape collapses. If Levante compresses space early, they suffocate the visitors' rhythm. This is a match decided by tempo, not talent.
Our Prediction
0-0. Levante parks everything defensively; Real Sociedad dominates possession but lacks the cutting edge to breach a desperate backline. Both teams leave disappointed, neither claiming the six-pointer.
