Promotion and relegation from 2008–09

Konyaspor, Kocaelispor and Hacettepe SK were relegated at the end of the 2008–09 season after finishing in the bottom three places of the standings. Konyaspor had to face demotion after six years in the highest Turkish football league. Kocaelispor returned to the First League after just one year in the Süper Lig, while Hacettepe ended a two-year stint in the Turkish top flight.

The relegated teams will be replaced by 2008–09 TFF First League champions Manisaspor, runners-up Diyarbakırspor and promotion play-off winners Kasımpaşa. Manisaspor and Kasımpaşa make their immediate return to the Süper Lig while Diyarbakırspor return after a three-year hiatus.

All of Ankaraspor's matches were scratched and counted as a 3–0 win for their opponents.[29]
