title: 1981–82 Bundesliga
text: # 1981–82 Bundesliga
  
  The 1981–82 Bundesliga was the 19th season of the Bundesliga, West Germany's premier football league. It began on 8 August 1981 and ended on 29 May 1982. Bayern Munich were the defending champions.
  
  ## Competition modus
  
  Every team played two games against each other team, one at home and one away. Teams received two points for a win and one point for a draw. If two or more teams were tied on points, places were determined by goal difference and, if still tied, by goals scored. The team with the most points were crowned champions while the two teams with the fewest points were relegated to 2. Bundesliga. The third-to-last team had to compete in a two-legged relegation/promotion play-off against the third-placed team from 2. Bundesliga.
  
  ## Team changes to 1980–81
  
  TSV 1860 Munich, FC Schalke 04 and Bayer 05 Uerdingen were relegated to the 2. Bundesliga after finishing in the last three places. They were replaced by SV Werder Bremen, winners of the 2. Bundesliga Northern Division, SV Darmstadt 98, winners of the Southern Division and Eintracht Braunschweig, who won a two-legged promotion play-off against Kickers Offenbach.
