LiontipsLevante vs Barcelona. Prediction and Betting Tips for La Liga
Command Analysis
Levante are having one of their worst seasons in recent years - after a terrible finish of the previous season Valencians are still unable to find their game and a lack of form led to terrible results. Team also failed to surprise in the Spanish Cup. After a victory over Huracan (8:0) the Frogs were beaten by Alcoyano on penalties (3:4).
But everything is much worse in La Liga - team is still far from finding momentum and even the change of head coach didn't help the club. After 30 rounds Alessio Lisci's men have four victories and 10 draws, delivering 22 points and a second-last spot in the standings.
Team has the worst defensive line in the league, they allowed two goals per game on average. In the previous round Granotes managed to beat Villarreal (2:0).
Gomez, Duarte, Clerc, Soldado and de Frutos won't feature in the upcoming match.

Tip and bets
We offer to place a bet on the visitors, their line-up is simply much better and they are in a much better form. Catalan club also has serious motivation - they are fighting for a second spot in the league. The Frogs were unsuccessful in recent head-to-head matches, plus they are having a terrible season.
Our prediction - Asian handicap (-1,5) on Barcelona
Before an important match against Eintracht, Barca's head coach will probably let some of key players to rest, but Xavi has plenty of high-skilled players in the squad. Valencian team has a chance to avoid a blowout, but Catalan side will probably secure a victory by a comfortable margin.
Our second bet is on Barcelona to win by two goals
