Changes from last season

The following clubs have been promoted or relegated at the end of the 2008–09 season:

Notes
  • 1 Slavonac CO had finished fourth, but had to step back from promotion after they were unable to find a suitable ground for hosting Prva HNL matches. Because of this, fifth-placed Međimurje qualified automatically for promotion and sixth-placed Hrvatski Dragovoljac qualified for the two-legged promotion playoff against last placed Prva HNL team.
  • 2 Moslavina finished 15th and also qualified for relegation, but since Slavonac CO was punished for first agreeing to enter Prva HNL and then stepping back from promotion by direct expulsion to 3.HNL, Trogir and Slavonac were the two teams relegated and Moslavina were allowed to stay in 2. HNL.
  • 3 In a two-legged promotion/relegation playoff between Croatia Sesvete (as 12th placed 1.HNL team) and Hrvatski Dragovoljac (as 6th placed 2. HNL team), the former kept their Prva HNL status by beating Hrvatski Dragovoljac with 2–1 on aggregate (0–0, 2–1) on 14 June 2009.
