Perspective
Promotion and relegation as usual was determined by the position in the table from prior season. The bottom two teams were directly relegated to the I Liga, while the top two teams are promoted to the Ekstraklasa.
Zawisza Bydgoszcz and GKS Bełchatów finished in 15th and 16th place, respectively, and were relegated to the I Liga as a result. Zagłębie Lubin, the 2014–15 I Liga champion, returns to the top level just one year after their relegation. Runners-up Termalica Bruk-Bet Nieciecza was promoted to the Ekstraklasa for the first time.
