The 2024–25 Egyptian Second Division B season is the second edition of the Egyptian Second Division B, the third-highest level in the Egyptian football league system, since its formation in 2023. Fixtures for the 2024–25 season were announced on 10–12 September 2024, following the draw for each region.^[1]^[2]^[3]

The season started on 9 October 2024, and will conclude on 25 May 2025.^[4]

Format

The league consists of 65 teams divided into six groups: one group of 12 teams, three groups of 11 teams and two group of 10 teams, with each group covering different parts of Egypt:

Group A and B for teams from Upper Egypt and eastern governorates.
Group C and D for teams from Greater Cairo, and central and north-eastern governorates.
Group E and F for teams from Alexandria and northern governorates.

The format for the 2024–25 season was adjusted from the previous season, with the changes being confirmed on 26 September 2024, after the new regulations were released.^[5]

All teams in each group play each other twice, home and away. The top three teams from each group advance to the promotion play-offs, forming three groups of six teams each, with each group covering a different region. The first-placed team in each group in the promotion play-off round earns promotion to the Egyptian Second Division A next season.

Teams finishing bottom in each group during the regular season face relegation to the Egyptian Third Division.

Teams

Team name followed with ^↓ indicates the team was relegated from the 2023–24 Egyptian Second Division A.
Team name followed with ^↑ indicates the team was promoted from the 2023–24 Egyptian Third Division.

The participating teams include 15 teams promoted from the Egyptian Third Division and six teams relegated from the Egyptian Second Division A. Originally, only 13 teams were promoted from the Third Division, but due to administrative errors, the Egyptian Football Association made a decision on 16 August 2024 to promote two additional teams, Benha and Al Jazeera, following appeals from both clubs.^[6]
