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).
(C) Champion
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. ^ Due to the suspension of Russian teams from UEFA club competitions, the Scottish Premiership runners-up will enter the Champions League third qualifying round.
  3. ^ As the winners of the 2021–22 Scottish Cup, Rangers, qualified for European competition based on league position, the spare Europa Conference League berth was transferred to the fifth-placed team.
