Ausonia Spezia was admitted to Serie B after the announcement of Spezia that had asked to be admitted to Serie A. After the refusal of FIGC, Spezia decided to join the regional leagues. Ultimately, Spezia was admitted to Serie B in the following season, replacing Ausonia.
Teams
Northern Italy had 12 Serie B clubs: six regular and three re-admitted teams of the last pre-war season, and three clubs promoted from Serie C. However, newly-promoted Varese obtained a yearly break for huge wartime damages.
All Serie C guests advancing to the final round were granted a titular Serie B licence.
Three groups were created: Western, Central and Eastern.
