Huesca did not fail against Numancia at home and, in addition, they benefited from the defeat of Almería to certify their place of direct promotion to the First Division. It will accompany Cádiz. The results, in addition, secured three playoff places. Almería, Girona and Zaragoza will play the qualifying rounds the other way to reach the First Division. Meanwhile, Fuenlabrada, Elche and Rayo will have to exhaust their options to reach the last of those tickets to fight for the great objective. Fuenlabrada, sixth with 60 points, depends on itself against Deportivo who arrives in a dramatic situation. You have to win or draw. Of course, Fuenlabrada has the average lost with Rayo. The vallecanos, eighth with 58 points, would need them to lose the azulones and not to win Elche. The ilicitanos are one place above Rayo, with 59 points. They would need to win and for Fuenlabrada to lose, since Pacheta's team, in the event of a tie on points with Sandoval's team, has the lost duel. Elche receives an Oviedo already saved. One circumstance that could arise is that from the third to the sixth, four teams finished tied at 63 points. In that case the order of the places for the playoff would be Girona, Almería, Fuenlabrada and Zaragoza.
Below, Extremadura and Racing were already down. The thing is still very open to avoid burning. At this moment, Deportivo (48 points) and Numancia (47) occupy the other two places of category decline. The Galicians will play it on the last day against Fuenlabrada at home, with the locals opting for the playoff. Meanwhile, Numancia receives a Tenerife that does not play anything, since it already ran out of a promotion tie option. Above are teams within reach of Galicians and Sorians. The Lugo (17th, 49 points) and Albacete (18th, 49 points), specifically. La Ponferradina is with 51 points in sixteenth position; Thanks to the goal (2-1) of the victory marked by Yuri, his mathematical permanence was assured since he has his duel with Deportivo won. Málaga and Oviedo are also saved. Lugo will play on the last day at home with Mirandés, who no longer has any goals within reach. Meanwhile, Albacete, who comes from clearly beating Zaragoza in a final (4-1), will play another against a Cádiz already hangover.
Playoff match for relegation
A bizarre possibility is that Deportivo and Albacete win their matches, placing themselves with 52 points and 51 points. On the other hand, Numancia beat Tenerife 3-0 and Lugo tied two with Mirandés in the other match. In that case, the sports team and the Machego would be saved, while Numancia and Lugo would equal everything with 50 points (difference in goals, general and individual). If that happens, a tiebreaker game between Sorians and Galicians would have to be played to settle the last relegation place. Numancia have a similar situation with Albacete if they are the ones who equal for the last remaining place of descent. If the La Mancha team ties and the Sorians win, they would equal 50 points with the tied average. Although Numancia would remain in Second by two goals of the general difference.
