The match is expected to be a low-scoring affair, with a 43.0% chance of over 2.5 goals, suggesting a more likely outcome of under 2.5 goals. In the current La Liga standings, Valencia sits precariously at 17th place, just one spot above the relegation zone, while Levante is even lower, positioned at 19th.

Match Analysis

Over their last three games, Valencia has struggled to find form, managing only a draw against Betis and suffering losses to both Real Madrid and Villarreal. They have scored merely once in these outings while conceding seven goals. Despite these setbacks, Valencia's advanced metrics show potential, with an average of 1.4 goals scored and 1.5719 expected goals in their last five matches, suggesting they may improve if they can convert chances more efficiently. Levante, on the other hand, comes into this match with a similarly challenging recent record, losing two of their last three games and drawing once against Mallorca. Their performances have seen them score three times while conceding six goals. Interestingly, Levante's advanced metrics reveal a marginally higher goal-scoring potential than Valencia, with an average of 1.8 goals scored and 2.21 expected goals over their last five games. However, their defensive frailties, evidenced by conceding an average of 1.45 expected goals, could be their undoing.

Final Prediction

Valencia's edge in this matchup stems from their home advantage and the slight improvement in their defensive metrics. Despite both teams' struggles, Valencia's potential to capitalize on their expected goals could tilt the match in their favor. A key factor to watch will be Valencia's ability to convert their chances, as this could determine if they can move further away from the relegation threat in this crucial fixture.
