The 2. liga (2nd league) is the second-level football league in Slovakia. Currently, the competition consist of 16 teams.[1] For two seasons, it was also known as DOXXbet liga for sponsorship reasons.[2]

History

The league was formed as a second-tier league in Czechoslovakia. Before the dissolution of Czechoslovakia it consisted of 16 teams. Upon dissolution, six teams were promoted to the then newly formed Slovak First League. The league was expanded to 18 teams in 1996/97 season, but returned back to 16 in 2001/02 and reduced to 12 in 2006–07.

For 2014/15 and 2015/16 seasons the league became known as DOXXbet liga as part of a sponsorship agreement.[2]
