Promotion and Relegation in German Football

The Bundesliga is the top league in Germany, and 2. Bundesliga is naturally the second tier. They are connected by promotion and relegation, as in England and other countries, but the German playoffs are a little different. In Germany, the team finishing 16th of 18 in the Bundesliga goes into a two-legged playoff with the team finishing third in 2. Bundesliga; the winner is in the Bundesliga for the next season.
