Levante vs Real Madrid Prediction for 24 September 2025 - Football

🔈 Can "Los Blancos" maintain their top spot in the La Liga standings after Matchday 6? One of Tuesday's headline clashes is the showdown between Levante and Real Madrid at the "Ciutat de València". Xabi Alonso's squad have yet to drop points this season and aim to continue their impressive run. Meanwhile, "The Frogs" have put in strong performances in their last two matches, managing to climb out of the relegation zone. Despite playing away, bookmakers give the "Galacticos" a sixfold advantage.

Head-to-Head

📊 In La Liga, the clubs have faced off in 32 head-to-head matches. Here's the breakdown of outcomes during this period: Levante secured 5 wins, there were 4 draws, and Real Madrid claimed victory 23 times. The last encounter between the teams took place at the end of the 2021/22 season, where "Los Blancos" triumphed with a 6-0 win. Let's also note the average scoring: Levante – 0.86, Real Madrid – 2.64.

Levante UD Team Overview

🔵 The "Frogs" are gradually adapting to the challenging conditions of La Liga and are currently in decent form. In the last two rounds, the Valencia-based team has earned four points, climbing to 16th place in the standings. One cannot overlook the impressive scoring ability of this newly promoted side, averaging 1.8 goals per match—only the top three teams have scored more. However, their defensive play is far from exemplary, conceding the same 1.8 goals per game—only Mallorca and Girona, sitting 19th and 20th respectively, have worse records.

🔴 The clash with Girona (4-0) last weekend was a real celebration for Valencia's fans. Julian Calero's squad didn't allow Girona to seize control from the start and tried to dictate the pace of the game. After two red cards for the hosts, the "Frogs" showcased their skills in positional play, looking very confident on the ball. Special mention goes to Levante's newcomer Etienne Eyong. The Cameroonian, who joined from Villarreal during the transfer window, has already made his mark with three goal contributions—2 goals and 1 assist—in his first two matches.

Real Madrid Team Overview

⚪ Xabi Alonso's squad continues to be the most consistent and effective at the start of the Spanish championship. After five matches, Los Blancos have amassed the maximum possible points tally—15. Interestingly, the Spanish manager began building his new team from the back, a decision that seems particularly wise. On average, Real concede just 0.4 goals per match, which is the best defensive record in the league. Whether the capital side can maintain this momentum remains to be seen.

📌 In the last round of La Liga, Los Blancos faced Espanyol (2-0) at Santiago Bernabéu. Despite the Parakeets being in excellent form, they couldn't unsettle Xabi Alonso's team. Real Madrid showcased maturity in their positional play, avoiding rushing events and sometimes patiently passing the ball around to force the opponent into pressing. The individual quality of the players and the managerial expertise allowed Los Galacticos to secure a convincing victory with class.

Latest news

Levante UD

📰 The recent match against Girona (4-0) was a milestone for Carlos Alvarez. The 22-year-old Spanish forward, a product of Sevilla's youth academy, scored his first goal in the top tier of Spanish football. Here's what the player had to say after the game: "It's a dream come true. Since childhood, I've aimed to score in La Liga. I hope there are many more to come, but the most important thing is the team. We all help each other and contribute, which makes us a united force and allows us to grow rapidly. It's crucial that we build our play from the back, that everyone participates in defense, and that we support each other. Ultimately, this helps us keep clean sheets and brings us closer to the victories we strive for."

❌ In the upcoming clash with the league leaders, Julian Calero can count on his strongest lineup, as there are no injured or suspended players.

Real Madrid

🎤 Xabi Alonso spoke to the media following another victory this season: "We played with seriousness and consistency. Perhaps we lacked some flair in the final third, but the team was focused. We faced no issues. This win is crucial for our continued growth. When up against a deep defense, you have to take shots from distance. Militão scored a very good goal, and Kylian shone on the counterattack. We're making strides forward and improving. The return of Bellingham and Camavinga is great news for everyone: for the team and for themselves. We need them; they are top-level players, and considering our schedule, we need every player." Interestingly, Xabi Alonso has become only the third coach in Real Madrid's history to win his first five La Liga matches. Only José Quirante (1928/29) and Vanderlei Luxemburgo (2004/05) have achieved this before.

❌ Real Madrid's injury list is gradually shortening. Currently, the only injured players for Los Blancos are Trent Alexander-Arnold (hamstring injury), Ferland Mendy (hamstring injury), and Antonio Rüdiger (thigh injury).

🟨 Yellow Card Prediction

🟨 Yellow Card Prediction

In 5 of the last 6 head-to-head encounters, there have been no more than 4 bookings. This pattern is also evident in most recent matches involving both sides. Let's note the average number of yellow cards in their games this season: Levante average 4.2, while Real Madrid average 2.2. Therefore, we suggest a total of under 4.5 yellow cards.

⚽ Goal Prediction

Head-to-head battles between these teams traditionally result in high-scoring affairs, with at least 3 goals scored in 7 of the last 9 meetings. Looking at the average total goals in matches involving each team at the start of this season: Levante stand at 3.6, Real at 2.4. We anticipate a dynamic match and a continuation of the high-scoring trend. Our pick is a total of over 2.5 goals.

🚩 Corner Prediction

Levante are not known for winning many corners, averaging just 2.2 per game, while conceding as many as 8.4 at their own end. In contrast, Real Madrid show the opposite trend in this statistical category: they average 5.8 for and 4.2 against. In head-to-head matchups, the capital club also holds a solid advantage with an average of 8 to Levante's 3.6. We suggest betting on Real to win the corner count with a -2 handicap.

Levante's prospects remain uncertain, despite a promising start to the season. The team still struggles with defensive issues, which could lead to significant setbacks against the current league leaders. Moreover, the "Los Blancos" boast an excellent balance across their lines, allowing them to perform effectively in various phases of the game. Our editorial team predicts a final score of 0-3, with the key bet being Real's victory with a -1 handicap.
