- ^ Pahang was docked 6 points due to involvement in the delay in the process of solving the problem of salary and compensation by the former imports season 2013, Mohamed Borji.
- ^ LionsXII are not eligible for any AFC competition spots

Notes
- ^ a b The match between Malaysia and Saudi Arabia was abandoned during the 87th minute after a group of supporters threw objects onto the pitch. At the time of the abandonment the score was 2–1 to Saudi Arabia. On 5 October 2015, FIFA decided that the match should be declared as lost by forfeit by Malaysia (0–3). Malaysia must also play their next home match against the United Arab Emirates without spectators.[2][3]
