(V) Assured of a top six finish
Notes:
- ^ Teams play each other three times (33 matches), before the league is split into two groups (the top six and the bottom six).
- ^ The winners of the 2024–25 Scottish Cup also qualify for the Europa League. If the cup winners qualify for the Champions League via league position, the berth reserved for the cup winners (Europa League play-off round) passes to the third-placed team, and 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.
