League 2 – Group B
2026 Season – Round 23 Recap (Halfway Point of 46)
At the halfway mark of the 46-round season, the promotion race and playoff battle in Group B are heating up.
🥇 Promotion Race
1️⃣ Vasco Da Gama – 48 pts
Vasco sits alone at the top and currently holds the automatic promotion spot to the World Premier League. With 15 wins in 23 matches and the league’s most potent attack (68 goals), they’ve built a slim but valuable cushion.
2️⃣ Inter – 46 pts
3️⃣ ACF Fiorentina – 46 pts
Just two points behind, Inter and Fiorentina are level and applying serious pressure. Either side could jump to first with one strong week and a Vasco slip.
4️⃣ FC Schalke 04 – 45 pts
Only three points off the summit, Schalke remain firmly in the automatic promotion conversation.
🔥 Strong Playoff Positions (2nd–9th advance)
5️⃣ Hannover 96 – 43 pts
6️⃣ Atalanta BC – 41 pts
Both clubs remain within striking distance of first place while comfortably inside playoff territory.
7️⃣ Arminia Bielefeld – 38 pts
8️⃣ Atlético Mineiro – 36 pts
9️⃣ Cagliari Calcio – 35 pts
The playoff line is competitive, but these sides have created a small gap from the chasing pack. Consistency over the next few rounds will be crucial.
🎯 Mid-Table Stakes
10️⃣ Desna – 34 pts
Currently positioned for the Friendly Cup spot.
11️⃣ Busan Park FC – 31 pts
Sits in the King’s Cup qualification position but under heavy pressure.
Just below them:
-
Blackburn Rovers – 30 pts
-
Philadelphia Ukrainians – 29 pts

D.C. Santa Clara – 29 pts
Only a few points separate 8th from 14th — one good or bad run could completely reshape the playoff picture.

The relegation fight is far from settled — just a few wins could lift any of these sides into mid-table safety.
⬇️ Relegation Zone (Bottom Two)
23️⃣ Monaco FC – 19 pts
