2020 Segunda División B play-offs
The 2020 Segunda División B play-offs (Playoffs de Ascenso or Promoción de Ascenso) are the final play-offs for promotion from 2019–20 Segunda División B to the 2020–21 Segunda División. The four first placed teams in each one of the four qualify for the promotion play-offs. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the relegation play-off was cancelled.
Play-offs will be played, if possible, between 18 and July as single-legged matches at a neutral venue.[1]

Format
The four group winners have the opportunity to promote directly and become the overall Segunda División B champion. The four group winners will be drawn into a two-legged series where the two winners will be promoted to the Segunda División. The two losing semi-finalists will enter the play-off round for the last two promotion spots. For this year, the final between the two winners was removed.
The four group runners-up will be drawn against one of the three fourth-placed teams outside their group while the four third-placed teams will be drawn against each other in a two-legged series. The six winners will advance with the two losing semi-finalists to determine the four teams that will enter the last two-legged series for the last two promotion spots.
As the regular season was suspended due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the qualified teams were chosen according to the position after the last round played before the suspension.
The draw of the first stage will be held on 25 June.[2]
