I don't understand how this works. How do you get to play St Mirren, if they aren't in the Championship Group? I thought the end of season grouping meant that teams in each group only played each other...?

Presumably, Celtic are top because they have more wins...?

Glad you asked mate. St.Mirren was match 33, so the final game of the "regular season", before the league was divided in top and bottom groups. So you are on point assuming that the clubs in the top half only play their final five games against other clubs in the top.

Celtic first, I think it's down to alphabetic order, to be honest. I had my doubts last season, where I lead on goal difference, and I couldn't tell if the goal difference counted the full season or only the championship group. Now it seems that only the points are carried over, whilst goals for and against is reset before the final five games.
