The Second Division is played in the same manner as the First Division, each club plays three games against other for a total of 15 games. The season is usually held between September and April, and the champion is promoted to next season's First Division season, replacing the bottom club from the First Division. The second-placed club plays a promotion and relegation play-off against the seventh-placed in the First Division. The majority of the matches are played at the Kercem Ground, with the occasional use of the Gozo Stadium.
