Rules for classification: 1) points; 2) head-to-head results; 3) goal difference; 4) number of goals scored
(C) Champion.
Notes:

CFR Cluj were initially deducted 24 points due to financial reasons,[1] but the decision was adjourned by Court of Arbitration for Sport until the conclusion of the insolvency proceedings.[2] CFR Cluj were not eligible to play in Europe as they did not obtain an UEFA license[3] because they filed for insolvency.[4]
CFR Cluj ahead on head-to-head record; CFR Cluj–Astra Giurgiu 4–1, Astra Giurgiu–CFR Cluj 0–1
The Romanian Cup finalist Universitatea Cluj filed for insolvency, and the other one is Steaua București, so the European spot meant for cup winner will be filled up by the 3rd eligible team from the Liga I and the spot for the third-placed team will be given to the 4th eligible team from the Liga I.[5]
Teams who have not been given a UEFA license (Brașov, Ceahlăul Piatra Neamț, CFR Cluj, Concordia Chiajna, Universitatea Craiova, Dinamo București, Oțelul Galați, Petrolul Ploiești, Rapid București and Universitatea Cluj) were not eligible to play in European competitions.[3] Petrolul Ploiești,[6] Dinamo București,[7] Rapid București,[8] FC Brașov,[9] Universitatea Cluj[5] and CFR Cluj[4] were not eligible to play in Europe because they filed for insolvency and Universitatea Craiova was not eligible because it was affiliated in 2013.[10]

[table_note_CFR0.61011877079034-5] CFR Cluj were initially deducted 24 points due to financial reasons,[1] but the decision was adjourned by Court of Arbitration for Sport until the conclusion of the insolvency proceedings.[2] CFR Cluj were not eligible to play in Europe as they did not obtain an UEFA license[3] because they filed for insolvency.[4]

[table_hth_AST0.61011877079034-6] CFR Cluj ahead on head-to-head record; CFR Cluj–Astra Giurgiu 4–1, Astra Giurgiu–CFR Cluj 0–1

[table_note_res_EL2Q0.61011877079034-8] The Romanian Cup finalist Universitatea Cluj filed for insolvency, and the other one is Steaua București, so the European spot meant for cup winner will be filled up by the 3rd eligible team from the Liga I and the spot for the third-placed team will be given to the 4th eligible team from the Liga I.[5]

[table_note_BRA0.61011877079034-14] Teams who have not been given a UEFA license (Brașov, Ceahlăul Piatra Neamț, CFR Cluj, Concordia Chiajna, Universitatea Craiova, Dinamo București, Oțelul Galați, Petrolul Ploiești, Rapid București and Universitatea Cluj) were not eligible to play in European competitions.[3] Petrolul Ploiești,[6] Dinamo București,[7] Rapid București,[8] FC Brașov,[9] Universitatea Cluj[5] and CFR Cluj[4] were not eligible to play in Europe because they filed for insolvency and Universitatea Craiova was not eligible because it was affiliated in 2013.[10]
