Levante's coach, Luís Castro, referred to the importance of maintaining focus in the match against Rayo Vallecano. 'If you give them a millimeter of space, they will hurt you. You have to stay focused at all times during the game because they are one of those teams that sometimes you think are not causing you trouble, and out of nowhere, they create a chance. They have players who, with one or two chances, are capable of changing the game', he said. Additionally, Castro predicted a 'very tough' match in which Levante will have to fight to the maximum to secure victory. 'We have to give our best performance if we want to come away with the three points', he indicated. At present, Levante is in 19th position in the league, with 29 points, 7 wins, 8 draws, and 16 losses in 31 games. Their goal is to improve their position in the table and win the match against Rayo Vallecano.
