League 2 – Group B | 2026 Season – Round 33 Recap
With 33 rounds in the books, Group B is shaping up to be one of the most competitive divisions. The promotion race is tight, the playoff battle is intense, and the relegation fight is heating up.
🔝 Promotion Race
FC Schalke 04 leads the table with 65 points, holding onto the automatic promotion spot. Despite a slight dip in recent form, they remain the team to beat.
Hot on their heels:
-
Vasco Da Gama (63 pts)
-
Hannover 96 (62 pts)
-
ACF Fiorentina (62 pts)
-
Inter (57 pts)
The top four are tightly packed, and with only a few points separating them, the race for 1st is far from decided.
🎯 Playoff Zone (2nd–9th)
-
Arminia (56 pts) and Atlético Mineiro (55 pts) are well-positioned in the playoff bracket.
-
Atalanta (55 pts) stays competitive despite mixed results.
-
Cagliari (53 pts) rounds out the top 9 but is under pressure.
Just outside:
-
Blackburn (49 pts) sits in 10th, currently qualifying for the Friendly Cup spot.
-
FC KA (48 pts) in 11th holds the King’s Cup position but is within striking distance of the playoffs.
🏆 Mid-Table Movement
Positions 12–18 remain very fluid:
-
Busan Ipark (47 pts) and Real Betis (41 pts) are still within reach of the top 10.
-
Desna, Deportivo FAS, and Santa Clara are inconsistent, making it hard to climb.
Further down:
-
Lille OSC (37 pts), FC Porto (36 pts), and Charlton (36 pts) are stuck in a mid-lower table limbo—too far from playoffs, but not yet in danger.
⚠️ Relegation Battle (23rd–24th)
-
Monaco (26 pts) is in serious trouble and must improve quickly.
-
Africa Sports FC (23 pts) sits bottom with a poor defensive record and looks increasingly likely to be relegated.
Just above the drop:
-
Philadelphia Ukrainian (34 pts) and Stade Brestois 29 (35 pts) are not safe yet and could still be dragged into the bottom two.
📊 Form Watch
-
🔥 Vasco Da Gama & Hannover 96: Strong recent runs keeping pressure on the leader.
-
📉 Monaco & Africa Sports FC: Continued poor form deepens their relegation concerns.
-
⚖️ Mid-table teams: Inconsistent results making the standings unpredictable.
🧭 What to Watch Next
-
Can Schalke hold onto 1st with pressure mounting from multiple sides?
-
Who will break into (or fall out of) the playoff positions between 7th–12th?
-
Will Monaco find a late escape, or is relegation inevitable?
With 13 matches remaining, promotion, playoffs, and survival are all still wide open in Group B.
