Levante hosts Eibar in round 5 of Spanish LaLiga. The match will be played on Saturday, September 21st at Estadi Ciutat de València (Valencia)
Levante started in the championship evenly. In all senses. After 4 rounds, the team has 2 wins and 2 losses. It lost 2 away games and won 2 home ones. 6 goals scored and 5 conceded. I propose to stop on the scoring of the Frogs. In the last round, Levante played against Real Madrid at the Santiago Bernabeu and lost. But it scored the grandee 2 goals. Hosting Valladolid and Villarreal, the Frogs scored them 2 goals either. And only in the debut match of the championship, they could not break Alaves. But this Alaves conceded only 2 goals and one of them from leading Sevilla. In general, Levante scores 2 or more goals in 9 of its last 11 matches at home. The coordinated game of the whole team is one of the secrets of such scoring. Levante is knit pretty well. Most players play in the club for more than one season. As for the newcomers, one can note only Miramon, who started to play in the first eleven. The rest, if they appeared in the field, did it 1-2 times and came from the bench. And 5 players of the Frogs’ squad have already scored in 4 rounds. It only confirms a good mutual understanding of the performers.

Eibar also showed almost no activity on the transfer market in the offseason. We can only note the acquisition of Jordan from Sevilla and Kuka from Getafe. The lack of fresh blood in its ranks led to a disgusting start. The team hasn’t gained a single victory and earned only 1 point in 4 rounds. The Gunsmiths have already conceded 7 goals, and only Betis has more. And in 3 out of 4 matches of the championship, they conceded at least 2 goals. Why should we be surprised if the team’s attack doesn’t work, and the defenders contribute to all the problems and cannot go back to their penalty area in time? 3 of 4 Eibar’s goals were scored by the defenders.
Based on the scoring of the teams (Levante scores quite well, Eibar concedes a lot), I propose to bet on 2 goals in the performance of the hosts. I want to add that in the head-to-head games, the Frogs regularly upset Eibar's goalkeepers and often more than once per match. To be more precise, Levante scored more than 1 goal in 7 of 8 last matches.
Prediction for the match: Levante to score over 1.5 goals
