The result in eight of the matches was changed to 0–3 losses, and one 0–5 loss was unchanged. This had a positive effect on Spårvägens FF which thus avoided both relegation and relegation play-off, and a negative effect on Lira Luleå BK which now had to play a relegation play-off, and Enköpings SK which were now relegated directly instead of playing a relegation play-off.TeamPldWDLGFGAGDPts1Hammarby IF26195255–17+38622Djurgårdens IF26176365–30+35573Umeå FC26127752–38+14434GIF Sundsvall26116940–31+9395Gefle IF26107944–31+13376Nacka FF26107936–48-12377IFK Luleå2699827–29-2368IK Brage26881048–39+9329Assyriska Föreningen26881035–48-133210Spårvägens FF26611933–39-62911Lira Luleå BK26781136–45-92912Enköpings SK26851337–47-102913IF Brommapojkarna26671327–47-202514Vasalunds IF26242018–64-4610 Division 1 Södra 1997 TeamPldWDLGFGAGDPts1Västra Frölunda IF26159272–24+48542BK Häcken26156564–29+35513Gunnilse IS26149355–23+32514Åtvidabergs FF26119637–38-1425Stenungsunds IF26117843–35+8406Mjällby AIF26910742–38+4377IFK Hässleholm261141146–44+2378Motala AIF26107931–35-4379Falkenbergs FF2698950–38+123510Norrby IF2689941–45-43311Hertzöga BK265111034–53-192612Myresjö IF26621827–65-382013IFK Malmö26381530–63-331714IK Oddevold26431924–66-4215 Division 1 qualification play-off 1997 1st round October 25, 1997 Lira Luleå BK 1–1 Skellefteå AIK ?, ?
