Celta vs. Levante UD: Kickoff, Team News and Result Status — Nov. 6, 2026

Information checked: Friday, Nov. 6, 2026, at 6:06 a.m. UTC (7:06 a.m. Central European Time, CET).

Celta will host Levante UD in LaLiga Matchday 12 on Sunday, Nov. 8, at Estadio Abanca-Balaídos in Vigo, Spain. Kickoff is scheduled for 6:30 p.m. in Vigo (CET, UTC+01:00), or 5:30 p.m. UTC. The fixture is still upcoming as of this check, so there is no Celta–Levante score to report yet.

The match comes after a demanding stretch for Celta: the Galician side lost 3–0 at Rayo Vallecano in its latest league game, then fell 2–1 at home to Union Saint-Gilloise in the Europa League on Thursday. Levante’s latest league result was a 2–0 defeat to Atlético Madrid. The standings put Celta 10th on 12 points and Levante 18th on 10 after 11 matches, making the meeting important to both clubs for different reasons.

When does Celta vs. Levante UD start, and where is it being played?

The match is scheduled for Sunday, Nov. 8, at Estadio Abanca-Balaídos in Vigo. Celta’s official schedule lists an 18:30 kickoff, and LaLiga’s English schedule lists 17:30 UTC. Spain will be on Central European Time (CET, UTC+01:00) on that date: the European Union’s 2026 return to standard time is scheduled for Oct. 25, so the local time converts to 17:30 UTC without changing the calendar date. Always check the official fixture page again in case the schedule changes.

LaLiga’s Spanish broadcast schedule lists Movistar LALIGA for this game. Broadcast rights vary by country, so viewers outside Spain can use LaLiga’s official broadcaster directory to check the service for their territory. The reader’s market is not specified here, so no country-specific channel is assumed.

What is the latest team news for Celta and Levante?

Celta’s most recent official medical report, updated Nov. 4, lists Álvaro Núñez, Borja Iglesias, Carl Starfelt, Miguel Román and Jones El-Abdellaoui as injured. The club also said those five were unavailable for Thursday’s Europa League squad. That information is a status snapshot, not confirmation that every player will miss Sunday; no later Celta matchday availability announcement had been verified at the time of this check.

Levante reported on Nov. 1 that Manu Sánchez had a mild injury to the hamstring muscles in his right leg after he was unavailable for the Atlético match. The club said he was awaiting progress before rejoining group training. The report does not confirm his availability against Celta, so his status should be treated as unresolved until the next official update. Neither club’s starting lineup was available at the time of writing.

Levante’s official match page says lineups will be available one hour before kickoff. That is the best time to confirm the goalkeeper, defensive shape and whether any recently injured players have returned.

What do the standings and recent results say about the matchup?

Those figures are the league table after 11 games, not a forecast. Celta has collected more draws and allowed fewer goals, while Levante has scored six more times but conceded 11 more. The numbers suggest two useful questions for Sunday: can Celta turn its home possession and pressure into more goals, and can Levante preserve its attacking output while reducing the space and chances it gives up? Those are tactical possibilities rather than confirmed plans or outcomes.

The recent head-to-head panel on the official match page records a 3–2 Levante win at Celta and a 2–1 Celta win at Levante. Those results underline that this pairing has produced wins for each side, but past meetings do not determine the next score. Celta’s 2–1 European defeat on Thursday may also make recovery and rotation worth watching, especially with only a few days between games. Whether that changes the team selection will be clearer when the lineups are published.

Has Celta vs. Levante UD finished, and what is the confirmed result?

No. At the time checked, Celta–Levante was still scheduled for Nov. 8, and no result existed. The latest confirmed result relevant to Celta’s week was its 2–1 loss to Union Saint-Gilloise on Nov. 5; in its previous LaLiga match it lost 3–0 to Rayo. Levante’s latest league result was a 2–0 loss to Atlético on Oct. 31. After Sunday’s final whistle, use the official LaLiga match center for the confirmed score and match details.
