Villarreal
- Villarreal CF are enjoying a resurgent season in LaLiga 2025-2026, currently placed third in the table with 65 points from 33 games, and their home form has been particularly impressive with the Yellow Submarine winning both of their previous two fixtures at the Estadio de la Ceramica.
- Nicolas Pepe has been a key figure in their recent five-game sequence with three goals, although Alberto Moleiro has been their best bet up front with nine goals in 32 appearances in the top flight.
Levante
- Levante have won just three of their 16 away games in LaLiga this season, drawing four and losing nine.
- Levante are struggling, occupying 19th place in the LaLiga table with 33 points from 33 matches, and need to win at Villarreal on Saturday to stand a better chance of avoiding relegation.
- Luis Castro has instilled a pragmatic approach on the team since taking over in December 2025, one that has seen them play a direct game and use their crossing from wide to get forward.
Head-to-Head
Villarreal won 0-1 when these sides met in the reverse fixture two months ago, but they have improved since then and should have no problems claiming all three points on Saturday.
Key Players
- Nicolas Pepe has been a key figure in their recent five-game sequence with three goals, although Alberto Moleiro has been their best bet up front with nine goals in 32 appearances in the top flight.
- Levante’s Carlos Espi has been their main threat this season, scoring eight goals in 20 league games and netting three times in their previous five matches, but he will face a stern test against Villarreal’s defensively sound back line.
Betting Insights
Over 2.5 goals is available at 1.65 , which is a decent price, but the home side’s solid structure and organisation should enable them to keep the away team at bay, with Both Teams to Score - No at 2.28 looking more appealing.
Prediction
This is a classic clash of control vs counter, although Villarreal are the clear favourites at 1.76 and should have no problem winning at home given their impressive form and home record in the league ( W13, D1, L2 ).
