Tactical Overview

Levante typically deploy a 4-4-2 formation under coach Alessio Lisci, focusing on defensive solidity and quick transitions. They rely on the pace of Jorge de Frutos and José Luis Morales on the wings. Osasuna, under Jagoba Arrasate, prefer a 4-3-3 with emphasis on pressing and set pieces, but they lack consistency away from Pamplona.
