It's not just about promotion, but also relegation. The Serie B standings are starting to take shape with the cadet series playoffs being preceded by the play outs. Today, in fact, Bari and Ternana take the field for the first challenge in an attempt to retain their place in B. The Apulians have moved in a year from the final to access Serie A against Cagliari, to the playoffs to achieve salvation and ward off the Serie C nightmare. The major revolution that changed the face of the team has played an important role in the fate of the club. The Umbrians, on the other hand, have worsened their situation over the last three years, finishing in 2022 in 10th place, in 2023 in 14th, and this year in 16th.

Serie B: where to watch the playoffs, how they work, and when they start

 

Time and date of Bari-Ternana

The Serie B playoffs between Bari and Ternana take place today, May 16th, with the first leg being played at 20:30 at San Nicola. The return match, on the other hand, will be on May 23rd, which is a week from now and will be held at the home of the Umbrians.

 

Where to watch Bari-Ternana

Bari-Ternana is available live on television on Dazn and on Sky, which broadcasts the game on channel Sky Sport 202. Additionally, the match can also be streamed through the official Dazn app, on Sky Go and Now.

 

How it works

Bari and Ternana will face each other in the play outs because they finished in the standings respectively seventeenth and sixteenth, with only two points difference. Had the points difference been 4 or more, then the Apulians would have been relegated directly. If the two games end in a draw, then Ternana would be saved due to their better position in the league. Extra time and penalties would only be played if the two teams ended up with equal points.
