II liga (Druga liga, Polish pronunciation: [ˈdruɡa ˈliɡa]), currently named Betclic II liga due to its sponsorship by Betclic,[1] is a Polish football league that sits at the third tier of the Polish football league system. Until the end of the 2007–08 season, II Liga referred to a league at the 2nd tier,[2] although this changed with the formation of the Ekstraklasa as the top level league in Poland. Currently, II liga is below I liga and above III liga.
Since the 2014–15 season, the league consists of a single division, unlike previous seasons when it was divided into two groups, West and East. The league consists of 18 teams.
The top two finishers are rewarded with automatic promotion to the I liga, while the teams ranked third to sixth face each other in promotion play-offs. Teams who finish 14th and 15th compete in the promotion/relegation play-offs against III liga group winners, and the last three teams are automatically relegated to the fourth division.
