Levante vs. Espanyol - News - January 11, 2026 | FOX Sports

Javi Puado - Torn ACL confirmed Puado is out for the rest of the season due to a torn ACL, according to his club.

Impact Puado is hitting the sidelines for the rest of the season, as after returning from an ankle injury around a week ago, he went down again and has been confirmed to have torn his ACL. This is unfortunate for the player and club, as he was their lead forward, recording two goals in 10 appearances (eight starts). He will likely miss the start of the next season as well and return sometime near September, with Kike as a likely replacement.

Adrian De La Fuente - Provides assist in tie De la Fuente assisted once to go with zero corners and two chances created in Sunday's 1-1 draw versus Espanyol.

Impact De la Fuente delivered Levante's key creative action, slipping the through ball that set up Iker Losada's 55th minute equalizer following a set-piece restart. He also put in strong defensive work late, contributing one tackle, one interception and six clearances. The center-back has been very decisive in his last three games, contributing two chances created and three shots while scoring once and providing one assist, highlighting the style of play new coach Luis Castro wants to build with the team.

Iker Losada - Scores equalizer in draw Losada scored one goal to go with three shots (one on goal) in Sunday's 1-1 draw versus Espanyol.

Impact Losada equalized in the 55th minute by arriving centrally to finish from close range after Adrian de la Fuente threaded a through ball following a set-piece situation. He nearly doubled his tally five minutes later, but his header on the break drifted wide to the right around the hour mark. Losada has found a starting role since the arrival of new coach Luis Castro and has scored in both of his starts, contributing five shots across two games. He will look to make it three in a row at the Bernabeu on Saturday when Levante face Real Madrid.

Mathew Ryan - Two saves in tie Ryan had two saves and allowed one goal in Sunday's 1-1 draw versus Espanyol.

Impact Ryan conceded Carlos Romero's top-corner finish in the 53rd minute and had no realistic chance of intervening on the strike. He responded with two saves overall, most notably in the 76th minute when he securely held Leandro Cabrera's header in the top centre of the goal. He also conceded a late corner under pressure, but Levante survived Espanyol's final set-piece wave. Ryan's next chance to show his qualities will come in a difficult outing at the Bernabeu against Real Madrid on Saturday.

Edu Exposito - Five shot in draw Exposito recorded five shots (zero on goal), six crosses (two accurate) and three corners in Sunday's 1-1 draw against Levante.

Impact Exposito's set piece quality drove Espanyol's late push, including a 76th minute cross that Leandro Cabrera headed on target and forced Mathew Ryan into a save. He remained involved as the primary service man once the game opened up, contributing to several season highs with five shots, six tackles, and four clearances created. The playmaker likely delivered his best outing of the season, although he couldn't find the back of the net to score his first goal of the campaign.

Carlos Romero - Second-half stunner breaks deadlock Romero scored one goal to go with three shots (one on goal) and one cross (zero accurate) in Sunday's 1-1 draw against Levante.

Impact Romero opened the scoring in the 53rd minute with a superb left-footed strike from the left side of the box that flew into the top-right corner. He continued to provide thrust from the flank, stepping high to keep Levante pinned back after the break. He contributed on both sides of the ball with three shots, five tackles, three clearances, and two interceptions. Romero scored for the second time in his last three appearances, bringing his total to four goals in 18 league games, an impressive return for a left-back.

Marko Dmitrovic - One save in draw Dmitrovic had one save and allowed one goal in Sunday's 1-1 draw against Levante.

Impact Dmitrovic conceded once on Iker Losada's 55th minute equaliser, beaten from close range after Adrian de la Fuente's through ball split the line. He was otherwise lightly tested and finished with one save, getting down to stop Kareem Tunde's long range effort. Espanyol limited Levante to only two shots on target, and Dmitrovic's handling helped them protect the draw late. Dmitrovic will look to build on that performance against Girona on Friday.
