1939-40 season started December 3, 1939 and finished April 28, 1940.
La Liga 1939–40 season was composed of the following clubs:
1 Oviedo CF
did not play in the first division 1939/40 due to the poor condition of their field at Buenavista after the Civil War.It was decided to allow Oviedo CF one season to improve their pitch, automatically allowing them to play in the first division in 1940/41. For the open place in the first division in 1939/40 a playoff between Athletic Aviación Club (in 1936, Atlético de Madrid) and Atlético Osasuna, the two teams relegated after the 1935/36 season was organized. Athletic Aviación Club won 3-1.
Since Oviedo CF
was promised one spot in the first division in the 40/41 season, only the first-placed team from the Segunda División
in 39/40 would be given an automatic berth to the first division. The second-placed team could also earn promotion in a special play-off against the 10th-placed team in the first division. Celta de Vigo
won the playoff and remained in the top division.
