This Sunday 16 May, Barça B will be at the Estadio Municipal Vicente Sanz de Don Benito after a fabulous season, capped by winning five of the six games in the final round to finish second in their promotion group behind Ibiza.

With a place in the new-look third tier already secure, Barça B are now hoping to go one better and earn a place in the second tier Division 2A next year. To do that, they’ll have to beat Murcia this weekend, and then win a second game on May 22-23 against the winner of one of the other seven games being played this weekend.

All of the games are being played over a single leg at different grounds in Extremadura.
