Teams
[edit]Casale, Fanfulla, SPAL, Siena and Salernitana had been promoted from Serie C, while Novara and Alessandria had been relegated from Serie A.
Events
[edit]The league was expanded to eighteen clubs to allow a wider representation of Southern Italy.
The goal average substituted the tie-breaker in event of equal points, to save time considering the risk of war. This change greatly helped Venezia.
