Rules for classification: 1) points; 2) goal difference; 3) number of goals scored.
(C) Champions; (R) Relegated
Notes:
  1. ^ As Tampere United are guaranteed European football in the Champions League as league champions, their spot in the UEFA Cup as Finnish Cup winners is transferred to the losing finalist. FC Honka will therefore play in the 2008-09 season of the UEFA Cup
