All the Serie B Week 37 games were played this afternoon, meaning there is just one more round left in the regular season.
The top two are automatically promoted to Serie A, along with a third team that will have to be decided through the play-offs.
Venezia back in Serie A
Venezia fumbled a 2-0 lead and drew 2-2 away to troubled Spezia, but that was enough to guarantee their ascension to the top flight, just one year on from their relegation.
Since their most recent bankruptcy in 2015, the Lagunari have played in Serie A for the 2021-22 and 2024-25 season, both times going straight back down.
It is the fourth time coach Giovanni Stroppa has secured promotion.
Frosinone and Monza had been neck and neck for the second automatic promotion spot, but today the former won 1-0 away to Juve Stabia, while the latter were defeated 3-2 at Mantova in another thriller.
This opened up a three-point gap going into the final round of the regular season, to see who goes up directly, and who enters the promotion play-offs.
It means Frosinone need only a point next week to be sure of promotion.
At the foot of the table, Reggiana are mathematically relegated to Lega Pro, with Spezia and Pescara locked together on 34 points, three adrift of Bari.
Pescara are in deep trouble after Flavio Rossi’s penalty was saved in their last-gasp 1-0 defeat away to Padova, but it’s not clear why Lorenzo Insigne didn’t step up instead.
Bari and Virtus Entella are currently in the relegation play-out places, but Empoli and Sudtirol are within reach too.
