Our prediction for this Segunda Division match:
Levante and Zaragoza face each other at Estadi Ciutat de Valencia in the opening match of the La Liga 2 round 34. Los Levantinos did well to beat Racing Santander in their last league match, with the team putting an end to their three-game winless run. Levante are eager to climb to automatic promotion berth, but they will have to prove their worth on the field. Sergio Postigo, who limped off with injury at the weekend, is a major doubt, while both Pablo Martinez and Skhodran Mustafi remain in the recovery room.
Los Blanquillos, on the other hand, are undefeated in the previous five league fixtures. Zaragoza are safe for now, and seeing that the hosts want this win more than the visitors, we are tempted to put our money on the home side. Both Marcos Luna and Victor Mollejo miss out with injuries, while Ivan Azon is a major doubt.
Highlighted Player (José Campaña):
Jose Campana is a Spanish footballer who plays for Levante in La Liga as a midfielder. Born in Seville on May 31, 1993, Campana began his youth career in his home-town club Sevilla and he eventually played 20 games in La Liga for the Estadio Ramon Sanchez Pizjuan outfit.
In 2013 he moved to England, signing a contract with Crystal Palace, but he made no more than six appearances in the league for the capital club. After ending his loan spell with Nurnberg in 2014, Jose Campana joined Serie A side Sampdoria, but he was immediately sent on loan to Porto. The Spanish midfielder played no more than two games for Porto in Primeira Liga and in 2015 he signed a loan deal with Spanish Segunda Division side Alcorcon.
In the summer of 2016 Campana moved to Levante and he has been playing for los Levantinos ever since. His main position is central midfield, but he is capable of playing as both defensive midfielder and attacking midfielder as well.
