Levante and Osasuna face each other in a duel where both teams need the points in the sixteenth round of LaLiga Santander. The Granota team arrives at a time of great crisis, as it seeks its first win of the season in the Valencia city and in the course in general, where he will also do it with his third coach of the season.
The Levantine team currently occupies relegation place to the Smartbank League, as current bottom, what’s more. This took him a few days ago to dispense with Paco Lopez, his coach in the last three seasons, but it is that just seven games after the Levante Board of Directors has fired Javier Pereira, your substitute. His arrival did not have the desired effect, since the Granota team holds the twentieth place in the standings with only 7 points, which reflects the poor performance of the team.
Yes, the Levante comes from thrashing in the first round of the Copa del Rey to the modest Huracán Melilla by 0-8, so at least he comes with a triumph under his arm. Although it is the bottom of LaLiga Santander, the Valencian team at least took out a home game against the Athletic Bilbao, although in the last match he lost to the Real Betis clearly by 3-1.
Facing this match, the Osasuna has 20 points and occupies tenth place in the standings, tied with the Athletic Bilbao and RCD Espanyol. The Navarrese team is one of the best visitors to the competition, but nevertheless links up to six consecutive days in LaLiga Santander without knowing the victory.
With the party of Valencia city on the horizon, Osasuna will not be able to count on Kike García, which is low for the game due to muscular discomfort. In addition to Budimir in attack, who scored his first goal in the past against the Elche penalty (1-1), it will be necessary to see who can accompany him, surely the Chimy Avila.
The Levante midfielder Gonzalo Melero, it will be doubt to be before Osasuna. The Madrid player, who played his last game on October 24 in Seville, worked partially in the sports city of Buñol on the weekend, but may not be available.
The two safe casualties for the granota team are those of Jorge Miramón and Sergio Postigo, with muscular discomfort, who has not been able to exercise with the rest of his teammates after playing last Thursday the first round of the Copa del Rey. The uprising wants to be strong in front of his audience in the Ciudad de Valencia stadium and achieve the first victory in LaLiga Santander.
