The Division 2 1993/94 was the 55th staging of the second highest French football league . From this season on, it was again a single-track league exclusively with professional teams, as had already been the case from 1933 to 1970 - interrupted only by the war and occupation years.

The game was played from July 24, 1993 to May 25, 1994. OGC Nice was the second division champion .

The 19 clubs that had not been promoted to the first division or relegated to the third division (national) or lower after the previous season were eligible to participate ; in addition there were two first division relegated teams - the third, SC Toulon , was relegated directly to amateur gaming - and one promoted from the national team . Thus, the following 22 teams played for the division 2 championship this season :

The top three clubs were now directly eligible for promotion, while the last four, also without barrages , were replaced by a corresponding number of third division promoters.

Season course

Each team played a return match against each group opponent, once in front of their own audience and once away. The two-point rule applied ; in the event of a tie, the goal difference was decisive for the placement. If there was still a tie - as in this season between Dunkerque and Charleville and between Le Mans and Niort - the higher number of hits counted. In France, when specifying the point ratio, only the number of plus points is given; here this is done in the notation used in Germany at the time of the 2-point rule.

Considered over the entire season, there was a division of the 22-man field in terms of the respective results and the playing strength. A group of seven teams - including one of the two first division players from last year and the only professional newcomer - played for the promotion places until the end of the season, while the remaining two thirds of the participants had to fight against relegation. After all, the eighth-placed was only five points away from a relegation rank. Only two of these 15 teams, Bourges and Istres, were really beaten early on, and Valenciennes, the other first division relegated team, accompanied them to the third division.

In the 462 encounters 1,031 hits were scored; this corresponds to an average of 2.23 goals per game. The most successful goalscorer and thus the winner of the league top scorer was Yannick Le Saux from the newly promoted Saint-Brieuc with 27 goals. For the following season three relegated from Division 1 were added; except for the relegated FC Toulouse and SCO Angers , this was Olympique Marseille , which was now transferred to the second division due to its involvement in the " OM-VA affair " in the 1992/93 season. Four teams rose from the third highest league with SC Amiens , En Avant Guingamp , La Berrichonne Châteauroux and FC Perpignan .
