The 2024–25 Austrian Football Second League known as the Admiral 2nd League for sponsorship purposes, is the 51st season of the Austrian second-level football league and the seventh as the Second League. The league consists of 16 teams.

Teams

Sixteen teams are participating in the 2024–25 season. Despite a fourth-place finish in the 2023-24 Austrian Football Second League, DSV Leoben was not granted admission to the 2nd division in the first and second instance. The club then appealed to the league's permanent neutral arbitration tribunal, where it also failed. As no other club from the Regionalliga West that had applied for a second division license was granted, Ertl Glass Amstetten remained in the league and the number of relegated teams was reduced to two. Mohren Dornbirn also failed to gain admission to the 2nd division and was relegated together with Leoben. ASK Voitsberg was promoted from the Austrian Regionalliga Central and Rapid Wien II was promoted from the Austrian Regionalliga East. Rounding out the league is Austria Lustenau, relegated from the 2023-24 Austrian Football Bundesliga by virtue of their last place finish in the top flight.
