Ronald Koeman, the Barcelona manager, says his side needs to improve after their shock defeat to Cadiz. 
 
"It's a huge step back in terms of winning La Liga. It's disappointing but we must accept it, even though being 12 points back from a strong team like Atletico is a lot," Koeman said. 
 
"The result today is difficult to explain. We concede the first goal and weren't good in attack, with too many players in the middle of the pitch.
 
"That's not the level I expect from my team. We must improve. We must be more focused. In general, the attitude without the ball was not good."

The Frogs are now undefeated in their last six matches in this competition having recorded five successive draws and one victory.

However, Levante are winless in their last four away matches in La Liga having recorded two losses and two draws. 
 
The last league meeting between Barcelona and Levante was on 2 February 2020.
Barcelona emerged 2-1 winners over Levante in a match which was played at Camp Nou.
