Real Sociedad vs Levante preview - Alcaraz: We cannot relax yet

Levante manager Lucas Alcaraz is refusing to get carried away after seeing back-to-back wins guide his team to the brink of Primera Division safety.

Alcaraz takes his team to Real Sociedad on Friday night knowing that a victory would put them as good as safe with three games remaining in the season.

But he is staying calm as he prepares to take on a Sociedad side who are also facing their second game in four days.

"This group has come out of a February where expectations were not good and we have the hardest thing which is to complete the task," he said following the 1-0 win over Cordoba.

"We're in the fight against relegation, but we need to think only about the next match, we cannot relax.

"The (league) places are taken or not taken, there are no percentages."

He added: "It's a great group of people, in the last 25 years I have had 25 changing rooms, and there was none that has the human quality of these players."

A win would move Levante to within two points of their opponents and Sociedad boss David Moyes is expecting a tough test.

"I think it will be a difficult game because Levante have been going away from home, playing very deep, hard to score against, they're not conceding many goals at the moment," he told the local press.

"So we need to play with some patience, to pass the ball around.

"So I hope we can show the same intensity, but again a lot is dictated by the opposition and that can sometimes be a part of the reason for not a great intensity, no speed to the game.

"It's not as though we've not had a great record against Levante over the years so we have to try and get three points from this game but it will be difficult."

The Scot also admitted he would making some changes to his line-up following the intense derby draw against Athletic Bilbao.

"I will make changes because I think to play three games in six days, with two of the games also (at) 10 o'clock at night make it very difficult for the players to recover and get proper sleep," he said.
