Sports Mole previews Levante's trip to Camp Nou to play Barcelona.

Barcelona will look to maintain their sizeable lead at the top of La Liga by beating Levante on Saturday evening.

The Catalan giants are currently 13 points clear of Real Madrid, having won 14 out of their 15 matches at Camp Nou.

Carles Puyol and Javier Mascherano are missing for Barca, while coach Tito Vilanova may opt to rest several players ahead of the Champions League tie with Bayern Munich in midweek.

Levante have conceded nine goals in their previous two matches to drop down to 12th position in the table.

They will head to the league leaders with hope rather than expectation, and manager Juan Ignacio Martinez could bring in Michel and Juanlu into his midfield.
