Barcelona look to sustain rampant scoring form at Levante
Barcelona arrive at the Estadio Ciudad de Valencia this Sunday in blistering attacking form, aiming to maintain their momentum in LaLiga. The visitors face Levante in this matchday 5 clash, with kick-off scheduled for 16:15 CET on 13 September 2026.
Barcelona have been nothing short of clinical in their recent outings, finding the back of the net with alarming regularity. Their attacking unit, spearheaded by the red-hot Raphinha, has dismantled defences with ease, including a dominant 5-0 victory over Valencia and a 5-1 Champions League win against Feyenoord in their last two matches. Balancing defensive stability against such a potent threat will be the primary concern for the Levante backline.
Levante enter the match following a hard-fought goalless draw away at Malaga. While their recent form has been mixed, the emphatic 5-2 win over Real Betis in late August demonstrated their ability to punish opponents when they find their rhythm. Facing a Barcelona side that remains dangerous until the final whistle, Levante will need to maintain their concentration for the full 90 minutes to secure a result at home.
Barcelona travel with a largely settled squad, though they will be without the injured Eric Garcia. The expected XI for the visitors features Joan Garcia in goal, supported by a defensive quartet of Xavi Espart, Gerard Martin, Andreas Christensen, and Joao Cancelo. In midfield, the creative trio of Marc Bernal, Pedri, and Fermin Lopez is expected to provide the platform for a front three of Lamine Yamal, Anthony Gordon, and the in-form Raphinha.
Levante are expected to field Mathew Ryan in goal, protected by a defensive line of Manuel Sanchez, Aissa Mandi, Adrian De La Fuente, and Nacho Perez. Their midfield engine room should consist of Thiago Fernandez, Jon Olasagasti, Enzo Bardeli, Roger Brugue, and Oriol Rey, tasked with supporting Ivan Romero in the forward line. The tactical battle in the middle of the park will be crucial as Levante look to disrupt Barcelona’s passing rhythm.
Matches between these two sides have frequently produced high-scoring affairs in recent years. While Barcelona secured a 3-0 victory in their last meeting in February 2026, previous encounters at this venue have been tight, including a narrow 3-2 win for the visitors in August 2025. With both teams looking to stamp their authority on the early stages of the season, this fixture promises to be an intriguing test of tactical discipline versus attacking flair.
