Prediction
The home side is under some pressure after falling to a narrow 2-1 defeat at the hands of Atletico Madrid. Their manager Nuno should be worried about the inconsistency which is hindering their move up the table. This is a good opportunity to correct that.
Levante have problems of their own with leaky defence top of their worries. Having conceded 10 goals in their last four league outings, the visitors are struggling to pick up points and are deep in relegation zone. Their scoring form is pretty bad too with just one goal in the previous four matches.
Valencia should come up trumps easily.
