Espanyol vs Levante Match Preview: La Liga Clash on April 27, 2026
Espanyol host Levante at RCDE Stadium in Cornella de Llobregat on 27 April 2026 (19:00 UTC) in La Liga, Regular Season - 32. Espanyol sit 14th on 38 points with a goal difference of -12, while Levante are 19th on 32 points and currently in the “Relegation - LaLiga2” zone with a goal difference of -13.
Espanyol & Levante Availability
Espanyol have one confirmed absentee.
- J. Puado (Knee Injury) is sidelined. His absence trims Espanyol’s attacking depth in the wide and central forward roles, but the rest of the registered squad is available, including creative midfielder Edu Expósito, who leads the team in assists.
Levante face a heavier list of concerns.
- R. Brugue (Knee Injury) is sidelined.
- U. Elgezabal (Knee Injury) is sidelined.
- I. Romero (Yellow Cards) is sidelined due to suspension.
- K. Tunde (Injury) is doubtful.
The suspension for I. Romero removes a midfield option and limits Levante’s flexibility between the lines, while the knee injuries to Brugui and Unai Elgezabal affect both attacking rotation and defensive stability.
Impact Summary
Espanyol lose one attacker but retain their main creative hub in Edu Expósito, preserving much of their build-up and chance creation. Levante, however, are without multiple squad members across defense, midfield and attack, and could also miss K. Tunde if he does not recover in time, reducing their capacity to rotate and sustain attacking output over 90 minutes.
