1991-92 Austrian football championship

The **1991-92 Austrian football championship**  was organized by the Austrian Football Association The top-flight First Division and the second-tier Second Division were merged this season through a playoff format. The third tier consisted of the Regionalliga East (Vienna, Lower Austria, Burgenland) and West (Salzburg, Tyrol, Vorarlberg), as well as the regional leagues of Carinthia, Upper Austria and Styria.

The rivalry between FC Tirol and Austria Wien over the past two seasons gained an additional title competitor in the form of Austria Salzburg in the 1991/92 championship season. The decision came in the final round. Austria  Wien defeated Salzburg 2-1 in front of 40,000 spectators. SK Sturm Graz, VfB Mödling ,  Linzer ASK and  Wiener Sport-Club were promoted from the Intermediate play off for the 1992-93 season.

## Mode

The championship in the 1st and 2nd Divisions was initially contested in the fall with 12 teams. Each team initially played 22 matches. The teams were then divided into the **Champion play off** (1st to 8th in the 1st Division), the **Intermediate play off**  (9th to 12th in the 1st Division and 1st to 4th in the 2nd Division) and the **Relegation play off** (5th to 12th in the 2nd Division) for the spring championship. This meant that the Masters Playoff determined the champions and European Cup berths, the Intermediate play off determined promotions and relegations between the 1st and 2nd Divisions.  Relegation Playoff determined teams relegated to the regional and state leagues. Half of the points from the regular season were carried over to the championship playoffs.
