Finland Ykkosliiga Standings & League Table
This page has the full Finland Ykkösliiga standings & league table, but the table itself is crucial because the season doesn't stay steady all year round. 10 teams are competing in the Ykkosliiga, and when the regular season finishes the league splits in two - a promotion group and a relegation group - and all the points you've accumulated so far carry over. This means that the standings are crucial twice over: first to see who will be in the top half of the table, and then again to decide who really has a shot at promotion and who is staring relegation in the face.
Promotion, Relegation & how each place in the table spells out a different story
The way the league table is structured gives it real importance. The team that comes out on top in the promotion group earns its ticket to the Veikkausliiga, while the team that finishes second has to go through a playoff against the team that comes 11th in the Veikkausliiga to see who stays up. But at the bottom, the team that comes last in the relegation group gets relegated to Ykkonen - and the team that comes second last will be facing a relegation playoff against a strong team from Ykkönen. So for anyone looking at the Ykkosliiga standings, every part of the table means something different - which is why this page is about more than just a list of points.
