Real Jaén is now just two matches away from reaching the First Federation after defeating Alavés B in a tie that ended with an aggregate score of three to two. Despite an initial home defeat of 1-2, the Jaén team demonstrated character and grit to come back and secure their place in the final. The squad managed by Manuel Herrero will face Atlético Baleares in a two-legged tie. The first leg will take place at the Nuevo Estadio Municipal de La Victoria on May 24th at 7:00 PM, while the return match will be played at the Balearic team's ground on May 31st at the same time.

Meanwhile, CD Estepona has secured its place in the fourth tier of Spanish football thanks to a titanic effort, led by Manolo Sánchez, former assistant coach of Málaga. The Málaga-based team managed to turn around a very difficult situation, avoiding the direct relegation playoff after a draw against Yeclano. In the survival playoff against Real Madrid C, after a 2-2 draw in the first leg, Estepona won 3-1 at home in the return match, confirming their continued presence in the category.

The most bitter news comes from Xerez CD, whose good season has been cut short after being eliminated from the promotion playoffs to the First Federation by Unión Balompédica Conquense. After a 1-1 draw in the first leg, the return match also ended in a stalemate, forcing extra time. Ultimately, the Castilian-Manchego team advanced due to finishing higher in their respective groups (third place for Conquense versus fourth for Xerez).
