Levante vs Leganes Prediction and Betting Tips | October 16, 2022

Levante will entertain Leganes at Ciudad de Valencia in the Segunda División on Sunday.

The hosts beat Mirandes 1-0 on Thursday to end their four-game winless run. Levante were relegated from the top flight last season after finishing 19th, prompting the departure of five top players. There have been a few arrivals as well, including winger Roger Brugue.

However, Granotes are yet to show they don’t want to be in the second division for long. They have won only three of their ten games and sit 11th with 13 points. The sacking of manager Mehdi Nafti a few days ago is another indication of the team’s predicament. A second straight win for caretaker Felipe Minambres will keep him in the good books.

Meanwhile, Leganes finished 12th last term to remain in the Segunda División. Their struggles have continued this season. Los pepineros are 17th in the standings, just above the red zone, and are tied at ten points with three other teams.

Leganes have won three of their ten games so far and have lost six times. They have overcome a four-game winless streak with back-to-back wins over Cartagena and Malaga. However, they face a daunting task, as they are yet to get the better of Levante in any competition.

Their head-to-head record tilts largely towards Levante, who will host this meeting. the two sides last met in February 2020, with lots of changes happening to both teams since then. Levante are not as formidable as they used to be, while Leganes appear battle hardened after last season.
