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).[6]
(T) Qualified, but not yet for the particular phase indicated
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.
