Post-match analysis

What actually happened

Espanyol won 3-0. BRYME has confirmed the scoreline and date across multiple tables but has not sourced a full goalscorer breakdown, so none is published.

Against the pre-match prediction

BRYME did not publish a pre-match preview or score prediction for this fixture, so there is nothing to hold this result against. It is written up after the fact, and we would rather say that plainly than pretend to a forecast we never made.

BRYME post-match analysis

Espanyol and Levante finished 11th and 16th last season, separated by four points, which makes a three-goal margin the surprise rather than the winner. It also sets up Espanyol's next fixture rather nicely: they host Real Madrid on 22 August, in José Mourinho's first league match back at the club, and they will do so top of the table on goal difference.

What BRYME said before kickoff

This preview was published on 2026-08-17 and is preserved unchanged. It is what we expected, not what happened.

Match overview

Espanyol beat Levante 3-0 at the RCDE Stadium on Sunday 16 August, the heaviest win of La Liga's opening matchday alongside Alavés's identical scoreline against Getafe.
