Rules for classification: 1) Points, 2) Head-to-head points,[5] 3) Head-to-head goal difference.[6]
If in current league table there are tied teams after applying criteria 1 to 3, they are considered to share places and listed in Greek language alphabetic order.[7]
If in final league table there are still tied teams after applying criteria 1 to 3, a decision match (or matches if they are more than two) are to be played but only in three cases: to determine the champion, to fill spots in the play-off or to determine the teams to be relegated.[8] In any other case, the final standings of tied teams are determined with a public draw[9]
(C) Champions
Notes:
  1. ^ Panathinaikos was docked three points following severe crowd violence during a match against Olympiacos and lost the game 0–3.[4]
  2. ^ a b Head-to-head points: PAOK 4, Atromitos 1.
