Valencia take on the visitors Levante in the round 13 match of Spanish LaLiga. The match will be played on Friday, November 21st at Estadio de Mestalla (Valencia).
Valencia are struggling to maintain stability in difficult moments. Los Ches have spent most of the current owner’s era fighting for survival. In past crises, they were repeatedly saved by finding the right manager at the right time. That happened in 2023, when local club idol Baraja produced results in the previous season but then completely collapsed in the first half of the next campaign. As a result, at Christmas 2024 the club literally bought Carlos Corberán out of England — and once again managed to escape the relegation zone, even climbing to 12th place with 46 points. This season they started well, with two wins and eight points from the first six rounds, but afterwards managed only draws against Alavés and, in the latest round, Betis, plus a cup win, while several defeats dragged them back toward the relegation zone. Their recent form shows a clear downward trend, with the team unable to convert possession into consistent points. The lack of momentum in league play has also increased pressure on the coaching staff, creating a fragile atmosphere around each upcoming fixture.

Levante managed to return from the Segunda after a fairly long three-year absence. The decision to rely on Julián Calero paid off: after finishing eighth in 2023/2024, he lifted the team to third and then won the playoff ties. However, the expected difficulties in La Liga quickly appeared. They have lost most of their matches — seven out of twelve — with victories coming only against Girona in September and Oviedo last month. Against slightly stronger opponents they achieved at best occasional draws. As a result, with nine points the newcomers sit second from bottom, and it is unclear what resources they have to improve, especially as Girona continue to gain momentum. Their away performances have been particularly unstable, with long stretches where they struggle to create meaningful chances. The team also finds it difficult to control games once they fall behind, which repeatedly leads to matches slipping out of their hands.
In the last five official matches, the Bats have won only twice, and in the spring of 2021 they even suffered a defeat to their neighbours. It is clear that any new setback for the hosts could become decisive for Corberán. In these circumstances, it is worth backing his team to overcome the struggling newcomers to La Liga.
Prediction for the match: Valencia to win.
