Villarreal vs Levante Prediction & Tips
Villarreal boosted its chances of finishing in the top three of La Liga for the first time since finishing as runners-up in 2007/08 by defeating Celta Vigo 2-1 and ending the matchday with a five-point lead over fourth-place Atlético Madrid. The Yellow Submarine continues to demonstrate its strong form in this competition, with just one loss in its last seven league matches (W4, D2), and should be confident of extending that run as only the title contenders, Barcelona and Real Madrid, have beaten them here in La Liga this season (W13, D1, L2). After winning each of their last five home league matches, another victory here would see them record six consecutive home wins in a single season for the first time since 2014/15.
Levante’s late-season resurgence continued on Monday afternoon, when they drew 0-0 away at Espanyol to boost their chances of avoiding relegation. Having lost just one of their last eight La Liga matches (W4, D3), the Frogs ended the last matchday just two points from safety, so they still have a chance to avoid relegation and an immediate return to the second division. More points on the road following Monday’s effort in Barcelona would go a long way toward their cause, as they have not won in their last six away league matches (D2, L4) and have won only one of their last 11 (D3, L7).
