The 2016 Segunda División season, also known as Copa Best Cable Perú 2016 for sponsorship reasons,[1] the second division of Peruvian football (soccer), was the 71th season since its establishment. The tournament was played on a home-and-away round-robin basis. The season started on 23 April 2016. The fixtures were announced on 12 April 2016.[2]

Teams

A total of 16 teams are contesting the league, 4 more than the previous season, including 10 sides from the 2015 season, one relegated from the 2015 Torneo Descentralizado and five promoted from the 2015 Copa Perú.

The 2016 season is the first in which former Copa Sudamericana winners Cienciano are competing outside of the top flight since 1974. Sport Loreto was relegated to the Segunda Division after a short spell of one year in the top flight. León de Huánuco refused to play in the 2016 Segunda Division and were relegated to the 2016 Copa Perú.

The teams which had been relegated from the Segunda División the previous season were Atlético Minero, and San Simón. San Simón was disabled mid-season and relegated to the Copa Perú for outstanding debts with the SAFAP.

Five Copa Perú teams were promoted: Academia Cantolao, Alfredo Salinas, Unión Tarapoto, Sport Áncash and Cultural Santa Rosa. Academia Cantolao was promoted as 2015 Copa Perú runner-up. Alfredo Salinas, Unión Tarapoto, Sport Áncash and Cultural Santa Rosa were invited to fill in the vacated spots after a strict financial analysis.
