Real Madrid v Levante live stream: How to watch La Liga from anywhere in the world
Watch a Real Madrid v Levante live stream as the La Liga action continues
Real Madrid v Levante live stream, Thursday 12 May, 8.30pm BST
Looking for a Real Madrid v Levante live stream? We've got you covered.
Real Madrid’s preparations for the Champions League final continue with a home clash against Levante on Thursday, with the visitors desperately needing points in their bid for La Liga survival.
With the league title already wrapped up with time to spare, Carlo Ancelotti has the luxury of being able to rest and rotate his players at will ahead of their European showdown with Liverpool in Paris later this month.
Another extraordinary comeback helped the Merengues past Manchester City last week with a 3-1 win at the Bernabeu after extra time, capping a 6-5 aggregate victory.
But they followed that up with a 1-0 loss away to Atletico Madrid on league duty on Sunday, as Ancelotti rested some of his key players.
The likes of Thibaut Courtois, Karim Benzema and Luka Modric were left on the bench for the trip to their city neighbours.
The Spanish champions will have to be careful to avoid an embarrassing upset here, against a Levante side fighting for survival.
The visitors beat Real Sociedad 2-1 last time out to climb off the foot of the table, but they remain five points adrift of safety with three games to go.
Levante host Alaves and travel to Rayo Vallecano in their final two games after the trip to the capital as they eye an unlikely survival bid.
Kick-off is at 8.30pm BST on Thursday 12 May, and the game is being broadcast live by La Liga TV. See below for international broadcast options.

VPN guide
Use a VPN to watch La Liga football from outside your country
If you’re out of the country for a round of Premier League fixtures, then annoyingly your domestic on-demand services won’t work – the broadcaster knows where you are because of your IP address (boo!). You'll be blocked from watching it, which is not ideal if you’ve paid up for a subscription and still want to catch the action without resorting to illegal feeds you’ve found on Reddit.
But assistance is on hand. To get around that, all you have to do is get a Virtual Private Network (VPN), assuming it complies with your broadcaster’s T&Cs. A VPN creates a private connection between your device and t'internet, meaning the service can’t work out where you are and won't automatically block the service you've paid for. All the info going between is entirely encrypted – and that's a result.
There are plenty of good-value options out there, including:
ExpressVPN including a 30-day, money-back guarantee
FourFourTwo’s brainy office mates TechRadar love its super speedy connections, trustworthy security and the fact it works with Android, Apple, Roku, Amazon Fire TV, PS4 and loads more. You also get a money-back guarantee, 24/7 support and it's currently available for a knockdown price. Go get it!
NordVPN with quality mobile and desktop apps
A cheaper option and almost ExpressVPN's equal when it comes to quality, too. A single subscription covers six connections, so you can use it on mobile, laptop, streaming devices and more, all at the same time.
Surfshark offers a great VPN at a fraction of the price
It's clear to see why Surfshark is top of TechRadar's best cheap VPN table – it combines an excellent product with bargain pricing, starting at £2/$2.50 a month!
