Notes:
  1. On 5 June 2014, Tyresö FF withdrew from the league due to lack of players and financial reasons,[2] and was relegated to the fourth-tier league Division 2. Tyresö had at that time played eight matches, which were then nullified and deleted from the table, and stood at place 9 of 12. As a result, only one other team was relegated to Elitettan at the end of the season.[3]
