Competition: Spanish Segunda

Market: Levante win

Odds: 2/5 @ 1xBet

Looking to take a giant leap towards booking their La Liga return, Levante will welcome Albacete to the Estadi Ciutat de Valencia on Friday night.

Starting with the hosts, getting this weekend’s fixtures underway holding a two-point buffer in the automatic promotion chase, Levante will be desperate to lay down another statement here. Knowing that they can climb to the top of the Segunda standings, Julian Calero’s men should be smelling a real opportunity here. Last seen putting in what was a sensational display as they clinched a 3-1 victory away at title rivals Elche, the Frogs will be dreaming of a repeat display on Friday night. Suffering just a single defeat from their previous six Segunda appearances, they have also lost just a pair of their last 14 matchups against second-tier opposition – a purple patch that stems all the way back to December 6th. With their promotion charge highlighted by a 5-2 romp against Real Zaragoza last month, Levante have also continued to shine with their success on home soil. In fact, Friday’s hosts have recorded 16 points from their previous six Segunda showdowns at the Estadi Ciutat de Valencia.

As for the visitors, making an immediate return to winning ways last weekend as they collected an action-packed 3-2 victory at home against Huesca, Albacete will be looking to spring a real upset here. However, seeking what would be a major miracle if they are to snatch a play-off ticket this season, Alberto Gonzalez’s men have struggled to find any real stability over the past couple of months. Winning just a pair of their previous six Segunda appearances, the Clockwork Cheese have also shown some real issues on the road. Last seen away from the Estadio Carlos Belmonte slumping to a woeful 5-1 drumming against Deportivo La Coruna, Friday’s guests have registered just a single win from any of their last 10 consecutive away fixtures. With that rut stemming all the way back to November 30th, Albacete should also be concerned by a worrying record against the title contenders. Including a 3-2 defeat when they travelled to Levante last season, they have failed to win any of their last 10 meetings across all competitions.
