The status quo was maintained in the second division, with all three top teams drawing. Salamanca drew 1-1 at home to improving Getafe, with Romania's Munteanu levelling the scores in the first half after Parrado's early goal. Levante also drew 1-1, away at Córdoba, with goals from Sales for the visitors and Armada for the home side. Extremadura could only manage a goal-less draw at home to neighbours Mérida. Las Palmas took advantage to close in on the leaders with a 2-1 victory against Villarreal. All three goals came in the first half, with Orlando and Pablo Lago scoring for the Canary Islanders, and Moisés getting his thirteenth of the season for Villarreal, taking him within two of the league's top scorer Salillas. Elsewhere, Osasuna moved up the table with a 1-0 victory against Sporting, and Compostela did likewise by beating Tenerife 2-1. The four bottom teams played each other, with Atlético B dedicating their 2-1 victory over Toledo to their ex president Jesus Gil, and Leganés pushed Recreativo further into the mud with two goals from Pachón in their 2-0 win.
