Celta's wing backs can claim the early territory, but Levante have a direct route past the first press. The next pass after either side scores will matter more than the initial spell of possession. Both teams have recently turned promising entries into blocked or inaccurate attempts.
Celta's official squad is missing Starfelt from the last line and Iglesias from the box after a demanding Thursday match. Levante's switch toward Fernández, Romero or Eyong can reach that altered defence, and their reply at Sociedad showed a real route back after conceding. Celta still have Aspas and the wing backs to restart an attack, yet their recent final contacts have been uneven. I'm siding with Levante to stay with Celta through those exchanges.
