Levante are newly promoted to La Liga, and so are very much the underdogs against the defending champions and current league leaders. Barcelona's 3-0 win over Mallorca last weekend put them top after one round of fixtures, and they'll be looking to inflict similar damage here.

Fans across the world will be able to watch the 2025/26 LaLiga live as Barcelona defend the title they won by four points ahead of Real Madrid last season. The league's rights packages include a new deal in the UK and Ireland as part of a multi-year agreement allowing fans to watch the likes of England forwards Jude Bellingham, of Madrid, and Barca's Marcus Rashford.
