- FC Andorra starts season at Nou Estadi de la FAF in Encamp against AD Ceuta on 14-16 August, ending three away openers.

FC Andorra will begin the 2026-27 Liga Hypermotion season at home to AD Ceuta at Nou Estadi de la FAF in Encamp on the weekend of 14-16 August, ending a run of three away openers in the second division.
The Royal Spanish Football Federation (RFEF) revealed the full fixture list on Tuesday at Madrid's Plaça de Colón, where a giant screen has been set up for Spain's World Cup games. Tenerife captain Aitor Sanz, whose contract expires this summer, launched the event with a symbolic kick-off before schedules for the top divisions were announced. This echoes last year's presentation in Ávila's San Juan de la Nava.
Ceuta, the last team to beat Andorra at Encamp on 24 May—winning 2-0 with the hosts reduced to 10 men after Petxa's red card—have strengthened ahead of the rematch. New signings include winger Álex Camacho from Juventud de Torremolinos, Ale Meléndez from Albacete Balompié, and Cedric Teguia from Moreirense. José Juan Romero remains in charge.
The campaign concludes away at Real Oviedo's Estadio Carlos Tartiere on 6 June. The newly relegated side from LaLiga EA Sports lost 3-0 at home to Andorra last season, a result that sealed the Principality club's drop to Primera RFEF before their return.
Early fixtures include an away game at promoted Celta Fortuna—the Vigo reserves—on 21-23 August, likely at Balaídos or Barreiro, with coach Fredi Álvarez's future uncertain. Jornada 3 brings SD Eibar, led by Jokin Aranbarri, to Encamp. Andorra travel to CE Sabadell on Jornada 8 around 4 October at Nova Creu Alta, ahead of Ferran Costa's return visit in Jornada 39 on 16 May.
Girona games fall on Jornada 10 at Montilivi on 18 October and Jornada 29 at home on 7 March. Real Mallorca, who signed ex-Andorra target Adrián Fuentes, visit Encamp in Jornada 13 and play away in Jornada 23. Jornada 34 on 11 April hosts Real Valladolid for the retro weekend, recalling Andorra's 1-0 win via Marc Cardona that confirmed survival last term.
Under Carles Manso, with Gerard Piqué and Jaume Nogués in the technical team, this marks Andorra's fourth professional season. The first half finishes away at Albacete on 10 January, resuming at home to Tenerife a week later.
