The victory is Celtaâs first this season, and sees them climb to 16th in the league table, between Levante and Espanyol. Eduardo Coudet had been under serious pressure in Galicia after a lacklustre opening to the season, and will be grateful for the win. As for Levante, theyâre still searching for their first victory. Both sides entered the season with the ambition of pushing for a Europa League spot, displacing Real Sociedad and Real Betis.
