Levante are fresh off of 2-2 draw with Atletico Madrid in midweek. The point gained has Levante near the escape from the La Liga relegation zone. A win over relegation-rival Granada on Monday night would send the Frogs outside of the bottom three.
Granada will aim to avoid defeat at the hands of Levante at the Ciutat de Valencia on Monday. Los Rojiblancos are 17th in the La Liga standings after 10 matchdays. They have taken eight points from 30 on offer.
