Granada vs Levante: Betting on the Visiting Team

Sunday's pool of round 32 of the Spanish championship will open with a match between Granada and Levante. Both teams are fighting to keep their place in the elite next season, but the southerners have decent chances, while Levante is very likely to drop to the Segunda. The upcoming match for the Frogs is almost the most important of the season.

Last round Granada finished with an away win over Alaves, a crucial 3:2. During the break, they played a friendly with Jaen, defeating their opponent 5:0. After the break, Granada played two matches: a 2:2 draw against Rayo Vallecano and a 2:4 away defeat by Sevilla. Granada has become a very high-scoring team lately reaching TO (3.5) every match of this period. Granada occupies 16th position, 29 points, which is only one point more than Cadiz, located in the relegation zone. Granada's home statistics are only 178th in the division, they have not won at home since December 2021, and the match against Atletico.

Levante had a great match against Barcelona in the last round. Imagine, the team from the relegation zone according to xG statistics looked better than Barcelona - 2.70 against 1.49, but lost with a score of 2:3. An amazing match, an amazing result that absolutely did not settle the Frogs. Before the fight with the Catalans, Levante beat Villarreal 2:0, probably the biggest sensation of the day. Obviously, Levante are in great shape and will fight to retain their place in the Spanish elite.

Levante is seven points behind Mallorca that occupy the safe 17th position seven rounds before the end. In this case, the Frogs have matches against Sevilla, Real Madrid, Real Sociedad lying ahead, i.e. the calendar at is not easy. It is important for them to bring back points from the south - three or more. Levante's away statistics are among the worst in the division, with only one win in 15 games, but in the last four away meetings, Levante regularly proved different.

Both teams have been showing top playing lately. We believe that Levante will not lose on Sunday. Frogs beat Villarreal, gave a real fight to Barcelona, scoring twice, and in fact, playing for three goals. It is doubtful that after these feats they will be afraid of Granada, which also has lineup problems. True, Levante will not to field all their strongest, which is also worth considering.

As we mentioned Granada has become a very TO team, but Levante also scored four goals in the previous two matches against the top teams of Spain, the Champions League semifinalist and Barcelona that was the second before the start of the round. We think that Levante can shoot twice and defeat Granada, but we also expect one goal from the southerners.
