The greatest strength of the home team is its ability to attack through rapid transitions. Keep in mind that from a defensive point of view, the difficulties increase when the rival team attacks by the wings. The Spanish Soldier is the great offensive reference and its highest quality is the completion. The local coach should not be able to count on Fede Vico, Germán Sánchez, Montoro and Lozano, delivered to the medical department.

Levante is unmotivated for this match, after a defeat at home, 2-4, against Valencia. It is possible that the visiting team prefers the right flank to attack, taking advantage of the depth offered by Miramón. Despite being a team that likes to play in the middle of the field, he also has the ability to leave for the counterattack. Keep in mind that at the defensive moment Levante proves to be a very aggressive team, giving the opponent little space. Coach Paco López cannot count on Duarte, Postigo, Cabaco, Rober, Melero and Rúben Vezo, delivered to the medical department.
