Barcelona travel to face Levante in La Liga action

Barcelona look to extend their lead at the top of the table when they visit Levante on Sunday.

Written by the BettingEdgeHub desk, 10 September 2026

Barcelona travel to Valencia on Sunday afternoon to face Levante with the clear goal of widening their advantage at the top of the La Liga standings. Hansi Flick and his squad arrive in high spirits after starting their campaign with five consecutive wins across all competitions. Bookmakers have priced markets accordingly as the visitors hold a fearsome reputation across Europe.

Levante injury updates and squad news

Levante suffered a heavy defeat against Espanyol on August 16th but have largely bounced back since that opening setback. Luis Castro will have to manage without Karl Etta Eyong because the young forward is sidelined with a muscle injury. Former Brighton goalkeeper Mathew Ryan will start in goal and summer signing Aissa Mandi anchors the central defence.

Barcelona team news and expected changes

Hansi Flick remains without the injured duo of Roony Bardghji and Frenkie de Jong for this fixture. The manager might rotate his starting lineup following a midweek Champions League match against Feyenoord. Gabriel Jesus could earn his first start for the club after scoring from the bench in Europe.

Head to head history

Barcelona secured a comfortable 3 0 victory when these two clubs last met in La Liga on February 22nd. In fact, the Catalans have won each of their previous four head to head encounters against Levante with a combined aggregate score of 12 to 4. Punters backing another dominant win will find short odds on the visitors.

What it means for a bet

The dominant head to head record makes Barcelona shorter in the betting market for Sunday afternoon.
