History:
Valencia CF will return to derby action on Friday Night Football to take on cross-town opposition Levante UD at the Ciutat de València at 9 pm kick-off time (local time) on Matchday 27 of LaLiga Santander.
Valencia CF have visited their neighbours on 60 occasions with a positive balance of 31 wins 9 draws and 20 losses. Last time out, Valencia CF bested Levante UD by a 4-2 in the reverse fixture which is the same margin on their last visit.
