2013–14 Belgian Second Division

The 2013–14 season of the Belgian Second Division (also known as Belgacom League for sponsorship reasons) began on 2 August 2013 and ended on 27 April 2014.

Team changes
After promotion and relegation, only 15 teams of the previous season remained in the league, with 3 others being replaced:

Out

 * Oostende were promoted as champions of the previous season.
 * Oudenaarde was relegated to the Third Division after finishing 17th.
 * Sint-Niklaas was relegated to the Third Division after finishing 18th.

In

 * Hoogstraten promoted as champions from Third Division A.
 * Virton promoted as champions from Third Division B.
 * Verbroedering Geel-Meerhout was promoted after winning the third division playoffs and changed their name before the season started to ASV Geel.

Period winners
Like before, the season was divided into three periods. The first ten matchdays together form the first period, matchdays 11 to 22 form period two and the last 12 form period three. The three period winners take part in the Belgian Second Division final round together with the winner of the 2013–14 Belgian Pro League relegation playoff. The winner of this final round gets to play in the 2014–15 Belgian Pro League.

Eupen and Westerlo respectively won the first and second period and qualified for the final round. But as eventual champions Westerlo also won the third period, this left two spots open for Sint-Truiden and Mouscron-Péruwelz to qualify as highest placed finishers (third and fourth in the league respectively) who had not already qualified.
