Austrian 2. Liga Betting Odds

While Austrian football at the pinnacle of the pyramid might be all about Rapid Vienna and Red Bull Salzburg at the top of the Austrian Bundesliga, a little further down the ladder, you’ll find some real value in the Austria Football Second League, also called 2 Liga.

And as is always the case at BetVictor, if you fancy a flutter on football in this part of the world, we’ll bring you the best Austrian football betting markets and odds from 2 Liga.

The second tier of Austrian football is made up of 16 clubs locking horns to push for promotion up a league to the Austrian Bundesliga.

The champions earn the right for automatic promotion, while the three teams languishing in the bottom three places will drop down into the regional leagues below — not a good place to be.

The current champions, winning the title in 2019 and now plying their trade in the Austrian Bundesliga are WSG Wattens, while LASK Linz are the most successful side at this level. The team from the Upper-Austrian state capital have five titles in total, with the most recent coming in 2017 – they remain in the Bundesliga.

The structure of Austrian football has been turbulent. While league football in this part of the world may have begun in 1900, the country’s annexation to Germany and the onset of World War II dramatically affected it.

Following an all-Vienna format for the top division after the war, both the Bundesliga and the Second League were formed in 1974. The inaugural winners were Grazer AK, while the club formerly known as SV Austria Salzburg spent several seasons down here, winning the championship in 1978 and 1987.

They were later renamed as Red Bull Salzburg in 2005 and are the current Austrian Bundesliga champions.
