On 5 May, Galatasaray won a record 19th Turkish title after beating Sivasspor 4-2.
Samsunspor, Manisaspor and Ankaragücü were relegated at the end of the 2011–12 season after finishing in the bottom three places of the standings. Ankaragücü concluded 31 years at top level, Manisaspor returned to second level after 2 years and Samsunspor immediately returned to second one.
The relegated teams were replaced by 2011–12 TFF First League champions Akhisar Belediyespor, runners-up Elazığspor and promotion play-off winners Kasımpaşa S.K..
