Rules for classification:
1) points; 2) goal difference; 3) number of goals scored
More about European qualification:
a) A further Europa League place is available through the Scottish Cup. The winners will qualify for the Play-off round, due to the winner of the 2011 UEFA Europa League Final having guaranteed their qualification for Europe via their League.
b)Hearts, the third-placed team of the 2010–11 Scottish Premier League, will enter the second qualifying round. However, should Celtic win the 2010–11 Scottish Cup, Hearts will be moved up to enter the third qualifying round. The Second qualifying round spot would be taken by the cup runners-up (if Celtic wins the cup), or the fourth-placed team of the league otherwise.
(C) = Champion; (R) = Relegated; (P) = Promoted; (E) = Eliminated; (O) = Play-off winner; (A) = Advances to a further round.
Only applicable when the season is not finished:
(Q) = Qualified to the phase of tournament indicated; (TQ) = Qualified to tournament, but not yet to the particular phase indicated; (RQ) = Qualified to the relegation tournament indicated; (DQ) = Disqualified from tournament.
