Latest Elche vs Levante football match prediction
Elche started the new La Liga season with two consecutive 1-1 draws against Real Betis and Atletico Madrid, earning them 2 points and placing them 12th in the standings.
The team in green stripes finished second in the Segunda Division last season to earn promotion, and their main objective this season is to avoid relegation, with any position above 18th place considered a success. In their most recent match against Atletico, Elche fell behind after Alexander Sorloth's goal, but Rafa Mir equalized, helping the newly promoted team secure a valuable point at the Wanda Metropolitano.
Last season, Elche only managed to secure 1 point from two encounters with Levante in the Segunda Division, including a 1-3 defeat in the second leg in May 2025. In fact, Elche haven't beaten Levante since April 2021, when the two teams met in La Liga.
Meanwhile, Levante can be somewhat confident, having won three of their last five encounters with Elche, and remaining undefeated. However, two of those three wins came at home. Despite this, the team nicknamed "The Frogs" have had a disappointing start to the 2025-26 season, losing both of their last two matches.
In their opening match, Levante lost 1-2 to Alaves, followed by a 2-3 defeat against champions Barcelona. It was unfortunate for them, as they had led 2-0 at halftime thanks to goals from Ivan Romero and Jose Luis Morales, but Hansi Flick's side scored three goals in the second half, including the winning goal in the first minute of added time. These were clearly matches Levante needed to capitalize on to earn points, and another defeat on Friday would be a major blow for the Segunda Division champions.
