Rules for classification: 1) Points, 2) Head-to-head points,[16] 3) Head-to-head goal difference.[17]
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.[18]
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.[19] In any other case, the final standings of tied teams are determined with a public draw[20]
(C) Champions
Notes:
  1. ^ Panathinaikos was docked three points following severe crowd violence during a match against Olympiacos and lost the game 0–3.[15]
  2. ^ a b Head-to-head points: PAOK 4, Atromitos 1.

Notes:
  1. ^ a b c AEK Athens were not licensed to play in the Europa League 2012–2013 and therefore were replaced by the 6th placed team in the league table, Asteras Tripolis, qualified for the second qualifying round. This meant that PAOK were qualified for the third qualifying round of the Europa League and Atromitos to the Europa League play-offs.
  2. ^ a b Atromitos lost the final of the 2011–12 Greek Football Cup against Champions League-qualified team Olympiacos. As a consequence, the three Europa League spots were distributed by the final standings of this group.
