1^ Željezničar were docked 6 points due to Planinić Affair
2^ During season 1991–92 all of Željezničar's matches in the second half of the season were declared void due to Bosnian War resulting in Željezničar abandoning the competition as a result of Republic of Bosnia and Herzegovina declaring independence from Yugoslavia. The return leg of club's 1991–92 Yugoslav Cup semi-final tie was scheduled to be played on May 6, 1992; but due to Željezničar club leaving the competition earlier, Partizan were awarded the 3-0 win.[4]
