Levante vs Real Madrid LIVE!
LaLiga champions Real Madrid are hoping to make it three wins on the bounce when they take on Levante today.
Seven points from a possible nine represents a decent return for Zinedine Zidane’s side, but the Frenchman will be hoping to see his side sharpen up in front of goal.
Madrid have scored just four times in their opening three LaLiga matches so far, with one of those coming from a penalty and another via an own goal.
