Villarreal CF hosts Levante UD at Estadio de la Ceramica on May 2, 2026, aiming for its sixth consecutive home win. Meanwhile, Levante finds itself in a precarious position, sitting 19th in La Liga and desperately fighting to avoid relegation.
Currently, Villarreal stands third in the league with 65 points, while Levante trails behind with just 33 points. Villarreal’s leading scorer, Georges Mikautadze, has netted nine goals, contributing significantly to the team’s success. In contrast, Levante’s Carlos Espi leads his side with eight goals.
The goal differentials reflect the teams’ current forms—Villarreal boasts a +21 differential, ranking third overall, while Levante struggles with a -13 differential, placing them 17th. Villarreal has won five of their last seven official encounters against Levante and has secured victories in six of their last nine matches.
