Real Madrid vs Levante Betting Tips: Latest odds, team news, preview and predictions

Real Madrid welcome Levante to the Estadio Alfredo Di Stefano on Saturday afternoon, with Zinedine Zidane's men looking for their seventh home win of the La Liga season.

Last weekend saw the Spanish champions win 4-1 at Alaves and with no Copa Del Rey in midweek following their elimination at the hands of third-tier Alcoyano, Los Blancos have had a week to prepare for the visit of Paco Lopez's team.

Nevertheless, the hosts remain clear favourites priced at 3/10 (1.30) with bet365, while the visitors are available at 15/2 (8.50) and the draw at 19/4 (5.75).

Real Madrid vs Levante Team News

The champions are without Fede Valverde and Rodrygo, who are both out for an extended period. Sergio Ramos missed the trip to Alaves but could be available, and Dani Carvajal is back from injury.

Levante are missing Jose Campana and Cheick Doukoure, while Jorge De Frutos and Nikola Vukcevic are both doubts.

Real Madrid vs Levante Preview

Matches involving Levante tend to see plenty of goals, with the side from Valencia boasting some impressive attacking options but lacking defensive solidity.

Indeed, Los Granotas' games this season have averaged 2.89 strikes - the fourth-highest total in the division - and their record on the road means this clash could also see the goals flow.

Whilst only three teams have conceded more than Levante's total of 16 away goals, with Paco Lopez's side also failing to keep an away clean sheet this season, they have scored in seven of their 10 games on the road this term and their last five La Liga encounters have produced 21 goals. 

Real Madrid vs Levante Tips and Predictions

The likes of Cadiz, Alaves and Huesca have all scored away to Real Madrid this season and a strong attacking team like Levante should also be able to get on the score sheet.

Both teams to score and over 2.5 goals is priced at 5/6 (1.83) and looks like an extremely tempting option.
