Levante UD (20th, 25 pts):
- Despite defeat last time out against R. Betis (1-0), the dressing room is confident of survival and buoyant ahead of this fixture. "Our chances of staying up are intact and real," stated captain Juanfran Garcia.
- The statistics make for positive reading for Levante, who have picked up more points (26) and scored more goals (32) against Espanyol than they have against any other side during their 11 seasons in the Liga BBVA.
RCD Espanyol (15th, 36 pts):
- The last five games for Los Pericos read two wins, two draws and one loss. The aim is consistency in order to put further daylight between themselves and the drop.
- It will be a special occasion for Felipe Caicedo against his former team. The striker is fully aware that his current employers need to be mathematically safe from the drop as soon as possible and he explained just how they plan to do that: "We're going to go for the win. We have five or six finals left and that's exactly how we'll approach them."
