Changes

[edit]

St. Pölten was relegated to the 2021-22 Austrian Football Second League after finishing in last place in the 2020-21 Relegation Round.[2] SK Austria Klagenfurt was promoted as champions of the 2020–21 Austrian Football Second League, despite finishing third in that competition. FC Blau-Weiß Linz finished in first, but did not apply for a Bundesliga license [3] and FC Liefering took second place, but as a feeder team for FC Red Bull Salzburg, were also ineligible for promotion.
