  3. Due to the suspension of Russian teams from UEFA club competitions, the Scottish Premiership runners-up will enter the 2022–23 UEFA Champions League third qualifying round.
  4. As the winners of the 2021–22 Scottish Cup will qualify for European competition based on league position, the spare Europa Conference League berth will be transferred to the fifth-placed team.
