A total of 16 teams contested the league, including 14 sides from the 2011–12 season and two promoted from the 2011–12 Serbian First League. Partizan successfully defended their title.

Metalac and Borac Čačak were relegated to the 2012–13 Serbian First League after the last season for finishing in 16th and 15th place, respectively. Metalac completed a three-year tenure in the league, while Borac were relegated after competing in top-tier football for nine seasons.

The relegated teams were replaced by 2011–12 First League champions Radnički Niš and runners-up Donji Srem. Radnički returned to the top tier for the first time since the season 2002–03, while this was the first season in top-tier competition for Donji Srem.
