2014–15 Eerste Divisie

59th season of the second-tier football league in Netherlands

The 2014–15 Eerste Divisie, known as Jupiler League^[1] for sponsorship reasons, was the fifty-ninth season of Eerste Divisie since its establishment in 1955. It began in August 2014 with the first matches of the season and will end in May 2015 with the returns of the finals of the promotion/relegation play-offs, involving also the 16th- and 17th-placed teams from the 2014–15 Eredivisie.

Rules for classification: 1) points; 2) goal difference; 3) number of goals scored
(C) Champions; (O) Play-off winners; (P) Promoted
Notes:

N.E.C. won the first period and was league leader over the other three periods as well. Almere City, FC Oss and FC Eindhoven won the second, third and fourth period titles respectively, because they were league runners-up during those periods.
Ten teams, two from the Eredivisie and eight from the Eerste Divisie, play for two spots in the 2015–16 Eredivisie, the remaining eight teams play in the 2015–16 Eerste Divisie. The season is subdivided into periods consisting of games 1–9, 10–18, 19–27 and 28–36. The top finisher in each period (that has not won a previous period) is a period winner and qualifies for the promotion play-offs first round even if they finish the season outside of the top nine.
Youth teams cannot be promoted and cannot participate in the promotion play-offs.
