Season summary

Compostela began their second season in the top flight by searching for a new manager, as Fernando Castro Santos, who had been with the club since their Tercera División days, left to join fellow Galician club Celta Vigo.^[2] He was replaced by Lugo manager Fernando Vázquez, who led Compos to the best league result in their history in his first season: they finished the season in a highly respectable 10th place. They also reached the last 16 of the Copa del Rey before being beaten 3 - 1 on aggregate by Sevilla,^[3] which was also their best performance in that competition up to that point. They would eventually better in by reaching the quarter-finals in 1999 - 2000.
