The Landesliga is the 6th tier of football in most of Germany, one division below the Verbandsliga.Only in Bavaria and Hessen are the Landesligas set right below the Oberliga and therefore are the 5th tier. The reason for this is that Bavaria and Hessen are the only places in Germany where the Oberliga, the State and the Verband are geographically the same.
Typically, in each Bundesland, the Landesligen are split up into different Staffel or "divisions".
In Bavaria and Hessen, the Landesliga is split up into three divisions, South, Central and North.
Note: Unterhaching II is a guest team, whose matches and their results would still be counted in the Südwest division table, and thus not an official Landesliga competitor.
