Levante UD says it will stream its first preseason fixture of the 2026/27 campaign against CD Leganés live and in full on the club’s official YouTube channel. The match is scheduled for Saturday, July 11, at 19:30, 30 minutes later than initially planned, at Campo 1 of the Ciudad Deportiva de Buñol.
The club says the game will be played behind closed doors because Campo 1 lacks suitable facilities to accommodate spectators and journalists safely. The training-ground pitch is not a conventional match venue, and the club says access is restricted because appropriate public-access and media facilities are lacking. Supporters will be able to watch online instead.
Rubén Delgado is due to provide commentary. He is a sports broadcaster whose work has included coverage of Primera Federación and Liga ASOBAL; he has also worked with Cadena SER. He has served as the stadium announcer for Levante’s women’s first team at the Ciudad Deportiva de Buñol.
Preseason fixtures give coaching staff an chance to assess players and prepare tactically ahead of competitive matches. For this opening game, the planned YouTube broadcast gives supporters a way to follow Levante despite the closed-door arrangement. Clubs increasingly use digital platforms to reach audiences who cannot attend in person. Spain’s upcoming World Cup semifinal against France is also being made widely accessible through live broadcasts, with the national team’s match set to air on La 1, as detailed in the club’s related coverage (Spain’s semifinal broadcast details).
The meeting with CD Leganés will be an early test for both teams as they prepare for the new season. Levante’s announced streaming plan pairs access restrictions at its Buñol training ground with an online broadcast, allowing supporters to follow the preseason opener remotely.
