The 2025-26 edition of La Liga is back in action with another set of matches this weekend as Levante lock horns with Ernesto Valverde's Athletic Bilbao side in an important encounter at the Ciutat de Valencia on Saturday. Both teams can pack a punch on their day and will want to win this game.
Levante vs Athletic Bilbao Preview
Athletic Bilbao are in eighth place in the La Liga standings and have been inconsistent this season. The Basque giants played out a 0-0 stalemate against Slavia Praha in the UEFA Champions League in their previous game and will need to take it up a notch this weekend.
Levante, on the other hand, are in 19th place in the league table at the moment and have struggled to make an impact this season. The home side slumped to a 1-0 defeat at the hands of local rivals Valencia last week and will need to work hard to bounce back in this match.
