Levante - Atletico Madrid
Last updated: Today, at Levante look to break Atletico Madrid's defensive resolve
Levante host Atletico Madrid at Estadio Ciudad de Valencia on 31 October 2026 for this LaLiga matchday 11 encounter. The home side, missing the injured Adrian De La Fuente and Enzo Bardeli, rely on the midfield trio of Thiago Fernandez, Roger Brugue, and Oriol Rey to dictate play against a disciplined visiting setup. Atletico Madrid arrive with a formidable expected XI featuring Julian Alvarez and Giuliano Simeone in attack, though they must navigate the absences of Koke and Johnny Cardoso. The visitors will look to Alejandro Grimaldo and David Hancko to anchor a backline that has shown significant consistency in recent weeks.
Levante enter the match following a 2-1 defeat to Real Sociedad, having previously secured a 3-1 victory over Athletic Bilbao. Atletico Madrid maintain a strong run, highlighted by a recent 1-0 win against Deportivo de A Coruna. With both sides aiming to impose their tactical identity, the midfield battle between the hosts and the visitors will likely determine the outcome at Estadio Ciudad de Valencia.
