Team statistics

League table

More information Pos, Pld ...
Source: [2][3]
Rules for classification: 1) Points; 2) Goal difference; 3) Goals scored; 4) Head-to-Head points; 5) Head-to-Head goal difference; 6) Play-off (only if deciding champion, UEFA competitions qualification, second stage group allocation or relegation).[4]
Notes:
  1. Teams play each other three times (33 matches), before the league is split into two groups (the top six and the bottom six).
  2. As the winners of the 2023–24 Scottish Cup (Celtic or Rangers) have both qualified for the Champions League, the berth reserved for the cup winners (Europa League play-off round) passes to the third-placed team. The berths for the Europa League second qualifying round and the Conference League second qualifying round are passed down to the fourth- and fifth-placed teams.
