Levante 2-0 Mallorca result, stats and report

Levante ended a five-match winless run in emphatic fashion, beating Athletic Club 3-1 thanks to a blistering Roger Brugué double and a Karl Etta Eyong late strike, with Aymeric Laporte's red card effectively ending Athletic's hopes.

Deportivo La Coruña rescued a point through Daniel Requena Sánchez's 82nd-minute equaliser after Levante had taken the lead through Bil Nsongo. A hard-fought draw at Riazor settled nothing for two sides who cannot find consistency.

Levante and Sevilla shared a remarkable 3-3 draw at the Ciutat de València, with Sevilla snatching a late equaliser through Ifeanyi Ndukwe in the tenth minute of stoppage time, before Levante's Isaac Romero was dismissed for a second yellow card in extraordinary closing scenes.

Two sides leaking goals, short on confidence, and running out of excuses meet in La Liga on Sunday. Something has to give.

Levante have failed to keep a single clean sheet in their last five La Liga matches. Elche have kept three. Something has to give on Monday night.

Atletico Madrid arrive at Levante on Saturday having won all five of their last La Liga matches. Levante have not won any of their last five. This is not a complicated situation.

Real Sociedad arrive at this one in serious form, scoring freely and with genuine conviction. Levante have not won in five La Liga matches and look like a side waiting to get hurt.
