Best online free soccer predictions for Levante – Real M

Levante faces Real Madrid at the Estadio Ciudad de Valencia in a game from the second round of La Liga. Stay with us and our best online free soccer predictions.

 

Levante kicked off their campaign in the Spanish league with a draw. Los Granotes paid a visit to Cadiz and got back home with a 1-1 draw. Jose Luis Morales opened the score for Levante in the first half, but Cadiz equalised with a very late goal from Alfonso Espino in the 97th minute. As you can see Levante were just seconds away from taking the win, so it was a huge disappointment for them to miss the three points in such a way. The head coach Paco Lopez was not happy at all with what happened in Cadiz and he had every reason for this.

 

Once again Paco Lopez used his favorite 4-4-2 formation in the club’s first game for the season. The new signing Roberto Soldado debuted in attack where he partnered with Roger Marti. Meanwhile Melero was the player who assisted to Morales for the goal the visitors scored in the first half. In the second half Dani Gomez, Pablo Martinez, Enis Bardhi, Miramon and Mickael Maisa entered the pitch for Levante, but somehow they missed this great opportunity to win the three points.

 

The centre-back Sergio Postigo remains injured in Levante’s camp. The experienced defender missed the first game of his club and most likely he’s not going to play in the second one as well. Levante will have to deal with his absence.

 

Real Madrid are topping the league after their convincing 4-1 win against Deportivo Alaves in the first round. The manager Carlo Ancelotti started his second stint at the club in the best way possible. Los Blancos played away from home, but this didn’t stop them from dominating at Estadio de Mendizorroza and claiming the win. Karim Benzema shined with a brace against Alaves while Nacho and Vinicius Jr. scored as well. Meanwhile Eden Hazard recorded an assist for his team which would be good for his confidence. The Belgian star is having some tough time since joining Real Madrid, but now he’s determined to finally show his true qualities. Who knows – maybe Carlo Ancelotti is the right coach to improve him.

 

Against Deportivo Alaves Ancelotti picked his favorite 4-3-3 formation – the same formation he used during his first era at the club. Eder Militao and Nacho started in the heart of the defense while Lucas Vasquez and David Alaba played on the two flanks. Luka Modric, Casemiro and Federico Valverde started in midfield while Karim Benzema, Gareth Bale and Eden Hazard started in attack. In the second half Ancelotti gave some time on the pitch to Vinicius, Rodrygo, Luka Jovic, Isco and Marco Asensio.

 

Toni Kroos remains injured, so this was the reason why the German midfielder was not part of the group for the first game. Most of the pundits expected that Isco would replace Kroos in the line-up, but Ancelotti decided to pick Fede Valverde instead. He could make some rotations for the next game, though, so it’s not impossible to see Isco starting against Levante. Another possibility is to see the Italian coach sticking to the midfield trio he chose for the first game.

 

It’s really interesting what Ancelotti decided regarding his attacking trio for the first match. Karim Benzema’s place in the team is undisputed, but Ancelotti didn’t have a second thought to pick Gareth Bale and Eden Hazard to partner him. It’s interesting because Bale was looking like a surplus at Real Madrid while Eden Hazard is struggling since joining Madrid. Despite this Ancelotti picked them ahead of Vinicius, Rodrygo and Marco Asensio which proved to be a good decision. Hazard made an assist for one of the goals while Bale was really active on the pitch.

 

Another curious decision Carlo Ancelotti took was regarding the new signing David Alaba’s position. Most of the fans expected to see the Austrian in the role of a centre-back, but the manager had to put him on the left flank because of the absence of Marcelo and Ferland Mendy. This is one of the best things about Alaba – he’s incredibly versatile and he can play on various positions, including the midfield. Don’t be surprised if you see the former Bayern Munich star at different parts of the pitch during the campaign.

 

Karim Benzema should be Real Madrid’s big leader again. The head coach Carlo Ancelotti was not shy of compliments about the Frenchman as he called him “a complete player”. Benzema proved his qualities in the first round against Alaves when he scored two goals. You can be sure that if Real Madrid manage to win a trophy this season, Benzema would be one of the main reasons for this. But he’s going to need the help of his teammates. Players like Hazard, Vinicius, Asensio and Rodrygo must step up their game in attack and prove that they deserve to wear the legendary white shirt.

 

Carlo Ancelotti was the manager who made Casemiro a vital figure in Real Madrid’s squad, so now the Italian coach will use the Brazilian midfielder as one of the pillars in his team. Casemiro was doing his usual business against Deportivo Alaves as he demonstrated some terrific work-rate and he was doing important defensive work. Him and veterans like Luka Modric and Toni Kroos are the players who must bring precious experience to Real Madrid’s team, especially in midfield.

 

These are our best online free soccer predictions for the La Liga clash between Levante and Real Madrid from the second round of the competition. Los Blancos already kicked off their season with a win and they are currently first in the table. Meanwhile Levante made a good performance in their first match, but they missed to win the three points literally in the last minute of the game. Madrid are favorites to take the win here, but in La Liga you never know what’s really going to happen.
