RC Celta de Vigo vs Levante UD Prediction 12 May 2026
Added on 10 May, 2026
The thirty-sixth round of La Liga gets underway in Vigo, where Celta Vigo host relegation-threatened Levante UD in a clash with major implications at both ends of the table.
Celta head into the match sitting sixth with 50 points and a 49-44 goal difference, keeping them in control of a direct Europa League spot. Back-to-back victories over Elche (3-1) and Atlético Madrid (1-0) restored confidence after a difficult spell that saw the Galicians lose three of four matches against Real Oviedo (0-3), Barcelona (0-1), and Villarreal (1-2). At Balaídos, however, Claudio Giráldez’s side continue to play brave, aggressive football and regularly create chances.
Levante, meanwhile, are fighting for survival and arrive in Vigo desperate for points. Wins over Getafe (1-0), Sevilla (2-0), and Osasuna (3-2) showed the visitors still have belief, although heavy away defeats — including a crushing 1-5 loss to Villarreal — exposed their defensive fragility. The Frogs currently sit nineteenth with 36 points and a worrying 41:57 goal record.
Given the circumstances, this match has all the ingredients for an open contest. Celta possess the stronger squad and greater technical quality, but Levante’s desperation could force an attacking approach. With both teams preferring proactive football, goals at both ends look highly likely.
