About the 2. Bundesliga table
Here is the 2. Bundesliga table for 2026-27, updated after every result, with each of the 18 clubs' record, goals, goal difference, points and latest form. The top two places are marked for promotion, third for the promotion playoff, and the bottom two for relegation to the 3. Liga.
Every club plays 34 matches, and the final standings are set on May 23, 2027. Last season's table sent Schalke 04 up as champions, together with Elversberg and, through the playoff, Paderborn, while Fortuna Düsseldorf and Preußen Münster dropped into the 3. Liga.
How to use the 2. Bundesliga table
- Points decide the order, and the columns beside them break each total down into results and goals.
- The form strip traces each club's five latest league games, earliest first.
- At the top, counters and a progress bar show how many of the 306 matches have been played and when the next one is.
- Check the full schedule on the 2. Bundesliga fixtures page.
2. Bundesliga table FAQ
How many teams get promoted from the 2. Bundesliga?
Up to three. The top two go up automatically, and the third-placed club meets the Bundesliga's 16th in a two-legged playoff for the last top-flight place, the route Paderborn took in 2026.
How many teams are relegated to the 3. Liga?
Two go down directly, the clubs in 17th and 18th. The team in 16th faces the club that came third in the 3. Liga, home and away; Greuther Fürth survived that way in 2026, beating Rot-Weiss Essen 2-1 on aggregate.
What happens if two clubs finish level on points?
The 2. Bundesliga uses the same DFL criteria as the top flight: goal difference, then goals scored, then the head-to-head record and away goals in those games, then total away goals. Only when all of that is equal do the clubs play a deciding match at a neutral venue.
