Atlético Madrid Hosts Levante in Critical LaLiga Showdown

Madrid, Spain – Atlético de Madrid will face off against Levante UD this Saturday, November 8, at 18:30 local time. This match, part of the 12th round of LaLiga EA Sports, is crucial for both teams as they seek vital points ahead of the upcoming international break.

Coach Diego Simeone‘s Atlético enters the match on a strong note, having secured three consecutive league victories, while recently overcoming Union Saint-Gilloise in the UEFA Champions League. Their home ground, the Riyadh Air Metropolitano, offers a significant advantage, with Atlético having won all of their matches there this season.

Levante, managed by Julián Calero, arrives in Madrid after suffering a loss to Celta de Vigo, extending their winless streak to three matches. Currently positioned 17th in the standings, they are eager for points to avoid slipping further into the relegation zone.

The match will be officiated by Jesús Gil from the Extremadura committee, with Daniel Jesús Trujillo handling VAR duties. Fans can catch the game live on M+ LaLiga and other platforms.

Historically, Atlético has had the upper hand in previous encounters, winning 18 of the 32 meetings in LaLiga, while Levante has only managed eight victories. However, Levante has caused upsets in the past and aims to replicate that success against a formidable Atlético side this time.

In team news, Atlético’s Nico González is back in the squad after recovering from an injury, though he may start on the bench. Levante is prepared to put up a fight, hoping their star player, Etta Eyong, can deliver key goals.

All eyes will be on the Metropolitano this Saturday as Atlético seeks to continue its winning streak, while Levante aims to change their fortunes in a must-win match. Stay tuned for live updates as the action unfolds.
