VS
Valencia vs Levante is the Valencian derby, a local rivalry where Valencia’s home reference meets Levante’s ability to keep the occasion tense. Three early meetings at Mestalla ended level, including 2–2 in March 2013, before Valencia won 3–0 in April 2015 and 4–2 in September 2020. Valencia’s 1–0 victory on 21 November 2025 was another narrow derby result. Future editions will again make local pride part of the competitive equation.

Matchup Valencia VS Levante
Valencia hold the stronger Mestalla reference
Valencia have turned many home editions into clear results. They won 2–0 on 4 January 2014, 3–0 on 13 April 2015 and 31 October 2015, then added 3–1 in February 2018 and April 2019. The 4–2 victory on 13 September 2020 showed the derby can open up, while a 1–0 win on 21 November 2025 demonstrated the value of a tighter margin. Mestalla gives Valencia the established frame. Levante’s 2–0 home win on 15 February 2026 added a forceful counterexample.
Levante keep the derby emotionally live
Levante’s strongest contribution at Mestalla has been to force shared or close outcomes. Valencia and Levante drew 0–0 in May 2011, 1–1 in April 2012 and 2–2 in March 2013, then shared 1–1 again in June 2020 and April 2022. Even the friendly meetings in July 2021 and July 2024 finished 1–0 and 0–0. Valencia’s home wins set the competitive benchmark, but the derby’s local stakes mean Levante can keep the contest compressed. A future meeting will ask whether Valencia create separation or Levante preserve the tension.
