Division 2 is the fourth level in the League System of Swedish Football and comprises 72 Swedish Football teams. Division 2 had status as the official second level from 1928 to 1986 , but was replaced by Division 1 in 1987 . It then had status as the official third level until 2005 , but was replaced once again by the recreated Division 1 in 2006 . THE COMPETITION There are 72 clubs in Division 2, divided in six groups of 12 teams each representing a geographical area. During the course of a season (starting in April and ending in October) each club plays the others twice, once at their home stadium and once at that of their opponents, for a total of 22 games. At the end of each season the two lowest placed teams of each group are relegated to Division 3 and the twelve winning teams from the twelve Division 3 leagues are promoted in their place while the third lowest placed teams in the Division 2 leagues plays promotion/relegation play-offs against the twelve second placed teams in Division 3.
