Levante UD could not secure points at the Ciutat de València after falling to Athletic Club. Players and fans were hoping to reconnect with the hope of achieving their first home victory, and although the team pushed especially in the second half, the three points ultimately traveled to Bilbao.

The match became an uphill battle very early on. In the 2nd minute, a cross from Berenguer on the left found Navarro's header to make it 0-1 on the scoreboard. Levante UD tried to respond, but in the 19th minute, the visitors created danger again with a shot from Williams Jr. that Matturro managed to clear very close to the goal line. Julián Calero's team tried to take possession to reach the opponent's area more clearly, although the Bilbao side continued to attempt to extend their lead.

Williams Jr. hit the right post, and immediately after, the Levante players responded with a corner taken by Carlos Álvarez that Elgezabal flicked on but went wide. In the dying moments of the first half, Athletic Club scored their second goal with a chip shot from Williams Jr. in a counterattack. Before halftime, Etta Eyong tested Unai Simón, who responded well to clear the ball and prevent it from entering his goal.

After the break, the Valencians showed pride and sought a goal from the very beginning. In fact, in the 51st minute, Iván Romero managed to find the back of the net, but the referee disallowed the goal for offside. Two minutes later, a cross from Etta was almost headed in by the "9", but he couldn't connect cleanly. The fans responded to the team's efforts, and Víctor García tried his luck from outside the box, once again finding Unai Simón, who deflected it for a corner.

Athletic threatened in the 70th minute with a dangerous play where Guruzeta narrowly missed connecting with a dangerous cross from Williams Jr. Levante UD kept pushing with a wayward shot from Etta Eyong and a header from Iván Romero that missed the target.

In a second half marked by the home team's determination and attacks, Levante UD tried until the end but failed to capitalize on their chances and finished the match without earning any points.
