- ^ Upgrading to 31,871.
- ^ Since the 2023–24 season Puszcza played their matches in Stadion im. Marszałka Józefa Piłsudskiego (Cracovia's home ground), due to the fact that the stadium in Niepołomice didn't meet Ekstraklasa standards.[4] They are set to play there only until the end of 2024.[5] It remains unknown where they will play the second part of the season.
