Levante UD wishes to publicly express its deep dissatisfaction and indignation after learning the schedules corresponding to Matchday 14 of LALIGA EA SPORTS, in which our team will once again play a match on Friday, barely four days after having played on Monday of the same week. A decision that represents a new detriment to our club and adds to a scheduling plan that, during this first part of the season, is placing Levante UD in a situation of clear competitive disadvantage compared to the rest of the teams in the competition.

Levante UD is one of the teams not participating in European competitions, along with CA Osasuna and Athletic Club, that has had the least rest so far this season.

We are not talking about perceptions, but about data. And the data shows an injustice that Levante UD cannot and should not normalize. Taking the first 14 matchdays as a reference, the Levante team will play 21.4% of its matches with a rest period equal to or less than 96 hours between games.

The situation becomes even more significant if we focus on the months of October and November, a period in which Levante UD will be the non-European competition team with the least rest accumulated in the entire competition. During these two months, 37.5% of our team's matches will be played with less than 96 hours of recovery.

Figures that objectively reflect the repeated lack of fairness in the distribution of schedules and reinforce our demand for equal conditions to compete.

Additionally, during the current season, Levante UD is the only LALIGA EA SPORTS team that has played matches on both Monday and Friday in the same week. A situation that will occur for the second time on the upcoming dates of November 23 and 27, after it already happened on October 12 and 16. Both instances, following a break for international commitments of national teams, during which no other competition takes place in the preceding week.

This accumulation of matches and the reduction of recovery periods not only affect the preparation for the games and the team's athletic performance but also increase the risk of injuries to our players. This is a particularly concerning situation as we have already suffered the consequences of this demand in recent weeks, with players unavailable to the coach.

Levante UD understands the complexity involved in creating the schedules for a competition like LALIGA EA SPORTS and is aware of the multiple factors that influence the setting of match times. However, this complexity cannot justify some clubs repeatedly enduring clearly less favorable rest conditions than others.

We demand respect for our badge, players, coaching staff, and especially our fans, who support the team and deserve the same level of consideration as any other LALIGA fan. Scheduling matches on both Monday and Friday in the same week, for the second time this season, also harms our fans, as it limits their ability to support the team due to the challenges of attending matches on weekdays.

We are not asking for privileges or special treatment. We demand equal conditions, fair criteria in the distribution of schedules, and planning that does not systematically penalize our club.

Levante UD will not remain passive in the face of a situation we consider unfair and that directly affects the integrity of the competition and the health of our professionals.

We deserve the same respect and conditions as the rest of the clubs, and we have conveyed this to the President of LALIGA, Mr. Javier Tebas.
