Scottish Premiership Map

Snapshot of the Scottish Premiership

There are 12 teams in the Cinch Scottish Premiership, but it's a league which has been dominated by the two Glasgow giants (Celtic & Rangers) for most of its existence. Between the two teams, they have won 85% of all the titles.

The Scottish Premiership has a unique structure where the league splits into a top and bottom half for the final six games of the season. This oddity means the team in 7th often finishes with more points than the team in 6th. At the end of the season, the team finishing bottom is relegated to the Scottish Championship, while the 2nd bottom team is involved in a relegation match with the Championship play-off winner.

The average attendance is 16,000 but there is a huge team-to-team variation, with Celtic pulling in 51,000 per match while just 4,100 attend Ross County games.
