Levante UD vs Athletic Club: Final Score 3-1, Lineups and Match Details
Levante UD beat Athletic Club 3-1 in their rescheduled LaLiga Matchday 6 fixture on Wednesday, October 21, 2026, at Estadio Ciutat de València in Valencia, Spain. LALIGA's official match data now marks the game as finished and records the 3-1 final score, while Athletic Club's official match page shows the same result. The match kicked off at 8:00 p.m. CEST (UTC+02:00), equivalent to 18:00 UTC.

Levante UD vs Athletic Club final score
The official LALIGA match page lists the contest as finished with Levante UD winning 3-1. LALIGA records Roger Brugué as scoring twice for Levante, Alex Berenguer as Athletic Club's scorer from the penalty spot, and Karl Etta Eyong as adding Levante's third goal deep into second-half stoppage time. The league's minute-by-minute feed ends with the explicit full-time entry, “Levante UD 3, Athletic Club 1.”
Athletic Club independently corroborates the outcome on its official match page, which also displays Levante UD 3-1 Athletic Club and names Brugué, Etta Eyong, and Berenguer among the scorers. This replaces the previous pre-match status in this article, which correctly treated the result as unconfirmed before kickoff.
Confirmed kickoff time and venue
The game was played on Wednesday, October 21, 2026, at Estadio Ciutat de València in Valencia. Athletic Club's official squad announcement specified a 20:00 CEST kickoff, and the event time corresponds to 18:00 UTC. CEST is UTC+02:00, so the local and UTC times refer to the same moment: 8:00 p.m. in Valencia and 18:00 UTC.
The venue did not change when the fixture was rescheduled. The match remained at Levante's home ground, while the date moved from its original September slot to October 21. Because the game has now been completed, readers using an older calendar entry should treat the October 21 fixture and 3-1 final score as the authoritative status.
Why the fixture was rescheduled
The Matchday 6 fixture had originally been due to take place on September 16. Athletic Club's official postponement notice said adverse weather conditions and the state of the pitch forced the match to be postponed. After checks by LALIGA and the refereeing team, the playing surface was judged not to meet the conditions required for the game to proceed.
The same club notice confirmed that the rearranged fixture would be played on Wednesday, October 21, at 20:00 at the Ciutat de València. That means the rescheduling changed the date and kickoff slot but not the stadium. This background remains relevant because older fixture listings may still surface the abandoned September date.
Confirmed starting lineups
Both starting XIs are preserved here from the official team sheets. These are the players who started the completed match, not projected lineups published before kickoff.
Levante UD starting XI
Ryan; Mandi, Ndukwe, Requena, R. Brugué, Olasagasti, I. Romero, Ratkov, Toljan, Manu Sánchez, Thiago.
The official match data lists Luís Castro as Levante UD's head coach. Brugué, one of the confirmed starters, scored twice, while substitute Etta Eyong later supplied the goal that made the final score 3-1.
Athletic Club starting XI
Unai Simón; H. Rincón, Yeray, Laporte, Yuri, R. de Galarreta, Jauregizar, Navarro, Berenguer, Johaneko, Maroan.
Athletic Club's official team sheet lists Edin Terzić as head coach. Berenguer, who started the match, scored Athletic's goal from the penalty spot. The club's match page also provides the substitutes and other matchday personnel for readers who need the complete squad record.
Athletic team news: Guruzeta was unavailable
One significant pre-match absence remains part of the verified team-news context. Athletic Club announced on October 19 that Gorka Guruzeta had suffered a torn anterior cruciate ligament in his left knee. The club's official medical report said the date of his operation would be confirmed later and that further recovery updates would follow. The report confirms the injury but does not provide a return date, so no recovery timetable should be inferred beyond the club's statement.
What changed in this update
The central change is the match status. Before kickoff, the verified information available for this article consisted of the rescheduled date, the 20:00 CEST start time, the Ciutat de València venue, and the confirmed starting lineups. LALIGA has now posted the completed result, so the article can be updated from a pre-match guide to a final-result record without relying on predictions or third-party score services.
The result is now supported by two primary sources: LALIGA's official match data, which explicitly says the match is finished and gives the 3-1 score, and Athletic Club's official match page, which shows the same score. The kickoff, venue, postponement explanation, and team sheets remain consistent with the previously verified information.
