The Super League Greece 2 (Greek: Ελληνική Σούπερ Λίγκα 2, known as the Betsson Super League 2 for sponsorship reasons) is the second division of professional football in Greece,serving as a feeder league to the top level Super League. Made up of 20 teams in two groups, it is usually played from September to May.

History

The league was founded in 2019, after the restructuring of the Greek football league championships,[1] replacing the Football League (former Beta Ethniki) as the second level in the league pyramid.

Twelve (12) clubs participated in the league's first season and second season of operation.

For the third season (2021–2022) the league was restructured after the abolition of the third level Football League. Starting with this season, the team became known as Betsson Super League 2 as the online betting operator entered into a title sponsorship agreement.[2] The league included 24 teams including Olympiacos, PAOK, Panathinaikos and AEK Athens also participating. Levadiakos was promoted to Super League and did not participate; A.E. Kifisia F.C. was an addition relegated from Super League.

For the fifth season (2023–2024) the league was stay into a two groups league with reduced to twenty four (24) clubs until the league will introduce a single league table with reduction to twenty (20) clubs from 2024–25.[citation needed]
