The 2020-21 edition of La Liga is back in action this weekend as Levante take on Granada in an important clash at the Ciutat de Valencia on Saturday. Both teams have been fairly impressive this season and will want to win this fixture.
Granada are currently in eighth place in the La Liga standings and have exceeded expectations so far this season. The away side crashed out of the Copa del Rey during the week and will want to take it up a notch in this match.
Levante, on the other hand, are three points behind Granada in the league table and will want to move up the table in the coming weeks. The Valencia-based outfit edged Villarreal to a 1-0 victory in the Copa del Rey and will be confident ahead of this match.
