Preview, form, head-to-head, team news and broadcast details for Barcelona vs Levante clash at Spotify Camp Nou, with the league campaign moving into a key stretch
Barcelona return to LaLiga action on Sunday with Levante visiting Spotify Camp Nou in Matchweek 25. Kick-off is set for 16:15 local time in Catalonia, and the fixture arrives at a point in the season where home wins become non-negotiable for any side with title ambitions.
Levante’s task is straightforward in theory and demanding in practice – stay compact for long spells, survive Barcelona’s wide pressure, and be ruthless when chances arrive.
Barcelona, meanwhile, will be looking for a performance that feels controlled and repeatable, rather than a match that turns into a shootout.
How the teams go into the game: form
Barcelona come into the weekend still searching for their cleanest rhythm across competitions, but they have received a timely boost with Pedri back training and expected to be included in the squad for Levante, with reports suggesting he could feature from the bench as he builds match fitness. The Blaugrana will look to get back to winning ways after losing away at Girona last weekend.
Meanwhile, Levante arrive knowing that away days at elite grounds can define their run. Their best route usually comes from organisation first, then quick switches into space once the opponent commits numbers forward. Sitting second-bottom in the LaLiga table, the visitors will look to end a three-game losing run.
