The Oberliga Niedersachsen (English: Upper League Lower Saxony), sometimes referred to as Niedersachsenliga (Lower Saxony league), is the fifth tier of the German football league system and the highest league in the German state of Lower Saxony (German: Niedersachsen). Since 1994, the league was split into a western and an eastern group. In 2010, it returned to a single-division format.[1] The Oberliga moved to a north-south split for one season in 2020.[2] It is one of fourteen Oberligen in German football, the fifth tier of the German football league system.
