Levante UD now has the official kick-off times for its next two La Liga fixtures. The competition has scheduled the matches for matchdays 6 and 7, as reported by Plaza Deportiva this week.
The Granotas, currently sitting ninth in the table with 4 points from three games, will face Athletic Club on Wednesday, September 16th. The match will be played at the Ciutat de Valencia Stadium with a 9:30 PM start. Three days later, on Sunday, September 20th, Levante will visit Villarreal at the Estadio de la Cerámica. That game will begin at 6:30 PM.
What is Levante's form heading into these matches?
Levante UD approaches this phase of the calendar following a three-week international break. The Valencian side has a record of one win, one draw, and one loss from its first three matches of the 2026-27 season. Their recent form is reflected in the sequence of results: win, draw, loss. In attack and defense, the numbers are symmetrical with five goals scored and five conceded, resulting in a goal difference of zero.
The squad managed by Paco López finds itself five points behind the leader, Barcelona. This context makes the upcoming fixtures important opportunities to add points and close in on the top positions. Fans can track the team's progress on our standings page.
What does this schedule mean for the club?
The scheduling of these matches implies an intense week for the team from Orriols. The home clash against Athletic Club comes just four days before the trip to Vila-real. This sequence will require careful management of the squad's physical efforts, especially after the international break.
The match at La Cerámica is a derby of the Valencian Community, a fixture always loaded with rivalry and meaning for the fans. For Villarreal, it will be their first home game after the international break. The geographical proximity between the two clubs adds an extra component to the match preparation.
What is the broader La Liga picture?
The confirmation of these times completes the map for the sixth and seventh matchdays of La Liga. Valencia CF, the city's other major club, also learned its appointments. Los Che will play against Alavés on Tuesday the 15th at 8:00 PM in Vitoria and will host Real Sociedad on Sunday the 20th at 9:00 PM at Mestalla.
