Celta Vigo vs Levante Match Preview: La Liga Showdown

Celta Vigo host Levante at Estadio Abanca-Balaídos in Vigo on 12 May 2026, in La Liga Regular Season - 36. Celta arrive sitting 6th with 50 points and a goal difference of 5, while Levante are 19th on 36 points with a goal difference of -16, fighting against relegation.

Celta Vigo Availability

Celta face several concerns. M. Roman (Foot Injury) is sidelined. C. Starfelt (Back Injury) is sidelined, removing an experienced option in defence. In midfield, M. Vecino (Muscle Injury) is doubtful and will need a late fitness check. These absences slightly disrupt Celta’s balance, though key attacker Borja Iglesias, their leading scorer with 14 goals and 2 assists, is available to lead the line.

Levante Availability

Levante also have notable issues. C. Alvarez (Injury) is sidelined in midfield, and A. Primo (Shoulder Injury) is sidelined, affecting the goalkeeping options. At the back, U. Elgezabal (Knee Injury) is doubtful, which could weaken their defensive stability. In attack, I. Romero (Muscle Injury) is doubtful, limiting rotation options around main forward Carlos Espí, who is available and has scored 9 league goals.

Impact Summary

Both sides lose depth rather than headline attacking stars. Celta retain Borja Iglesias, preserving most of their attacking output, while Levante’s forward threat still hinges heavily on Carlos Espí despite doubts elsewhere in the squad.
