Granada CF welcome Levante UD to the Estadio Nuevo Los Cármenes on Thursday night in a titanic relegation battle clash.
Granada CF Betting News
Granada CF go into Thursday’s massive game knowing a win would be huge in their quest to stay in the top-flight.
The Andalusian outfit currently sit 17th in the table, just one point ahead of Sporting Gijon in 18th, and two points ahead of Thursday’s visitors Levante in 19th.
Last time out Granada took on Atletico Madrid at the Vicente Calderon, and were dismissed 3-0 by the title-chasers.
That loss extended their winless run in La Liga to six matches. Of the 18 points available in that time they’ve only managed to accrue a measly four.
Granada boss Jose Lopes will welcome back Isaac Success after suspension, and subsequently may play him as a striker on his return to the side.
Elsewhere, Dimitri Foulquier is sidelined until at least June, with Miguel Lopes set to deputise at right-back after being passed fit this week.

Levante meanwhile go into Thursday’s match knowing it is a great opportunity to leapfrog out of the relegation zone, subsequently sending their hosts into it.
Levante have spent much of the season at the bottom of the table, but their January acquisitions, coupled with some improved performances have pointed to a team down, but not out.
Last time out Levante took on Espanyol at home, winning 2-1. This meant the Valencia based club have now accrued eight points from the last 18 available; a run which is better than most of the other teams around them in the table.
In the meantime, Levante coach Rubi will be without Juanfran who is suspended, with Jefferson Lerma and Pedro Lopez expected to start at full-back.
Notably however, Levante have lost eight of their last nine away matches in La Liga.

Thursday poses a great opportunity for both sides, who desperately seek avoiding relegation to the Segunda.
The stakes are massive for both club, which will likely dictate the type of performances on show. With that, a tight and rather dour draw is the most likely result.
