With two goals in the last five minutes against Albacete, leaders Salamanca kept up their push for promotion at the first attempt after being relegated last season. Goals by Quique Martín (who missed a penalty earlier) and Munteanu gave them a 2-1 victory. Levante's good run finally came to an end as they lost to Osasuna 2-0 with two goals in a minute in the first half, but they stay in second place, now six points behind the leaders. Extremadura lost their opportunity to go second, losing 2-0 at bottom club Toledo, with Sánchez Duque taking over as manager of the home side for the first time. Las Palmas drop further down the table after a disappointing 1-1 draw at home to Villarreal. They have now only got 3 draws from their last six matches. Fellow Canary Islanders Tenerife jumped over them to fourth place after thrashing Leganés in Madrid by 0-4, with a hat-trick by Barata. Sporting moved up to fifth with a 0-1 away win against struggling Atlético Madrid B. Logroñes are not sure if they have any future after their club entered winding up proceedings. However they impressed any potential investors with another victory, this time 1-0 against improving Getafe, to add to their good run in the cup. Recreativo, Leganés, Atlético B and Toledo currently occupy the four relegation spots, although if Logroñes disappear only three will go down.
