Levante
- This Sunday’s LaLiga matchup between Levante and Rayo Vallecano has both sides locked at eight points from eight games and 13th and 14th place respectively in the early-season table.
- Levante, who drew 1-1 at Getafe last weekend, have won two, drawn two and lost one of their five matches in all competitions since beating Real Oviedo 2-0 away, a run that provides insight for this Levante vs Rayo Vallecano betting tips analysis.
- Levante are structured, disciplined and compact at the back, but can overplay in their wide areas, which causes the ball to stick in dangerous places.
- Eyong has been their talisman with five LaLiga goals in eight matches and three of Levante’s last eight goals.
- Both teams have scored in two of Levante’s last three matches.
- Levante have shipped three goals a game in their three home LaLiga matches.
Rayo Vallecano
- Rayo Vallecano will want to put Levante under pressure and cause them to make mistakes, which could be key in this matchup of contrasting styles.
- They are not quite as effective as they were a few months ago, but a 1-0 LaLiga defeat to Sevilla, a 2-0 Conference League win over FK Shkendija 79 and a 1-0 away LaLiga victory at Real Sociedad in the last few days should mean they come into this game with some rhythm and inform our Levante vs Rayo Vallecano prediction.
- Alvaro Garcia, who is leading the line for Rayo with two goals in eight LaLiga games, has pace and power to challenge Levante’s centre-backs, but their real danger comes from their wingers, who are all quick and can hurt teams on the counter.
- Rayo Vallecano have 2 wins, 1 draw and 2 losses in their last five, which is important information for our Levante vs Rayo Vallecano betting tips.
- Rayo Vallecano are averaging 1.2 goals per game on the road in LaLiga 2025-26.
