2025/26 Season Statistics
Racing Santander scored 90 goals to top the table on 82 points and return to La Liga after 14 years, with Deportivo La Coruna also promoted directly after 8 years away. Almeria, Malaga, Las Palmas, Castellon and Burgos all went into the promotion play-off, which Malaga won.
At the bottom, Mirandes, Huesca, Cultural Leonesa and Real Zaragoza were relegated to Primera Federacion in a division that expanded to 22 teams for 2025/26.
What to expect in 2026/27?
Three relegated La Liga clubs and two promoted sides reshape a newly configured 22-team Segunda.
Mallorca, Girona and Real Oviedo drop down from La Liga and immediately become three of the league's most heavily backed promotion candidates, while Tenerife and Eldense arrive after winning promotion from Primera Federacion.
Almeria, Las Palmas, Castellon and Burgos, all beaten in last season's play-offs, will look to go one better in 2026/27 in a division widely regarded as one of the most unpredictable second tiers in Europe.
