Sportsmanship must familiarize itself as soon as possible with its new reality in Second B, a category in which a total of 102 teams will fight in five groups to be promoted to Second.
Unlike in the previous campaign, the participating teams will be divided into five groups, four made up of 20 clubs and one of 22.
The Spanish Football Federation plans to divide the 102 participating teams by territorial areas next week, as well as the calendar draw.
RC Deportivo de La Coruña, along with the other three recently relegated (Numancia, Extremadura and Racing de Santander) will start on their opponents with the advantage of enjoying a compensation income for the loss of category, so in principle they will be the clear candidates to return to the silver division.
