Swiss Challenge League

The Challenge League (known as the Dieci Challenge League for sponsorship reasons) is the second-highest tier of the Swiss football league system and lower of two professional leagues in the country. Ten teams play in the Challenge League; the winners of the league are promoted to the Super League, while the bottom-placed team is relegated to the Promotion League.

The Challenge League is played over 36 rounds from the end of July to May, with a winter break from mid-December to the first week of February. Each team plays each other four times, twice at home and twice away, in a round-robin.

The bottom team will be relegated to the Promotion League and replaced by the respective champion for the next season. The club finishing in 2nd place will compete against the ninth-placed team of the Super League in a promotion play-off over two games, home and away, for a spot in the succeeding tournament.
