Levante v Real Madrid predictions and preview: Betting stats

Levante are currently 6^th in La Liga with 17 points from their opening 10 games (W5 D2 L3). Their form is very good at LWWWD with the draw coming away to Sevilla last week. They also drew on Thursday night against Twente in the Europa League; both 0-0. At home they are unbeaten with 1 draw and 4 wins from their opening 5 home matches. Their games average 2.60 goals with half seeing over 2.5 goals.

Real Madrid are 3^rd in La Liga so far with 20 points (W6 D2 L2) and have fairly similar form to their hosts at WDWWW. They began the season with consecutive away defeats but have since recovered to win twice to nil and draw at the Nou Camp. Their games average 3.20 goals and 6 have seen over 2.5 goals; 4 have had fewer.

Team News and Run of Play

Dudka will be missing for Levante while Real Madrid will be missing Khedira, Marcelo and Coentrao.

Levante’s very good home record will be a confidence boost going into this game. Their form in Europe is equally impressive and they should qualify for the Europa League once again this year. They aren’t scoring or conceding too many goals but they are doing enough to win games at home and this will be a real gauge of how good they really are.

Real Madrid, despite a stuttering league start, have improved of late to 3^rd place in the league but will need a win here to attempt to bridge the gap to the top 2 or at least not lose pace. Their defence is the best in the league and having conceded just 7 goals so far this season (5 away from home) they may keep Levante at bay. They are still scoring plenty too with 25 goals so far (just 10 away however).

Levante v Real Madrid predictions: 1X2 betting preview

This is a difficult match to call but for me, despite Levante having a day or two fewer to prepare for the game, odds of 10.00 are too good to turn down. A team unbeaten in their last 4 league matches and looking very assured at home, I think Levante are a bet.

If you can see the home side shocking the Champions, take that great price with BetVictor.

Levante v Real Madrid predictions: Asian Handicap preview

Since my value bet is the home outsiders I will of course be favouring them in the Asian handicap market also. Levante +1.5 is my bet, so even if they lose by 1 goal you win your bet at a price of 1.93 with Pinnacle. Real have been scoring goals and not conceding lately but Dortmund displayed some of their defensive frailties midweek while 0-0 draws for Levante suggest this will be a close game.

Can’t see a big win for Real even if they do succeed? Bet here.

Levante v Real Madrid predictions: Total Goals preview

For me this game looks destined to be over 2.5 goals. Levante have seen an average of 3 goals in their home games while Real’s away games have also averaged 3. Maybe a 2-1 Levante win? Over 2.5 goals is 1.55 with BetVictor.

If you also see goals, bet here.
