Levante v Athletic now has a new date and kick-off time | OneFootball

The match suspended yesterday due to the heavy rain in Valencia will finally be played on October 21 at 8:00 p.m. at the Ciutat de València

Levante UD vs. Athletic Club now has a new date. The match corresponding to the sixth round of LaLiga EA Sports, which had to be suspended last Wednesday due to the severe storm that hit Valencia, will finally be played on Wednesday, October 21 at 8:00 p.m. at the Ciutat de València.

The clash was initially scheduled for September 16 at 9:30 p.m., but the intense rainfall that fell over Valencia during the night left the pitch unplayable. The suspension was confirmed shortly before kick-off, after the teams had already completed their warm-up and many fans were already in the stands.

The decision made it necessary to find a new date in an especially packed schedule. Athletic had a match against Alavés scheduled for Saturday, September 19, while Levante was due to face Villarreal on Sunday, September 20. For that reason, playing the match the day after the suspension was ruled out.

Finally, LaLiga has set the match for Wednesday, October 21 at 8:00 p.m. The new kick-off time allows the game to fit into both teams’ schedules and keeps the fixture within the first half of the championship.
