Next season's calendar

As mentioned elsewhere on this site, next season's fixtures will not be published until both the league (LFP) and Federation (RFEF) have approved the calendar at their annual general meetings in the middle of July (probably by the 16th). In the meantime though the LFP have set the dates on which league matches will take place, with everything kicking off on 29th August and the last round of matches scheduled for the 29th May. There will be three midweek rounds of games on 22nd September, 22nd December and 2nd March, but no matches on the weekends of 5th September, 10th October and 27th March due to international commitments. The second division will start on the same date as the first but finish three weeks later on 19th June, and the Spanish cup final will take place on 11th June, with the semi-finals on 20th April and 11th May.
