[Football] Union Saint-Gilloise v Club Bruges 17:30

[¡Cereal Killer!]

1-0 to Genk

Genk have taken the lead against Antwerp at half-time meaning they currently occupy top spot.
USG 0-0 Club Brugge in the other match, if USG win that game they would be champions if the Genk score stays the same.

It really is a pathetic end to the season in this league… You win the league and then go in the Conference League.

The haven’t won the league though. The play off determines the winners of the league and European qualification, the regular season games determine what advantage each team takes into the Championship play offs.

Belgian clubs voted for this system. Their theory was it would increase the number of matches between the top sides each season and hopefully improve teams by playing more matches that had something riding on them and eventually lead to better performances in European competitions, it remains to be seen if that theory comes to fruition.

When did they adopt the system?

When did they adopt the system?

It’s been in place since the 2009-10 season. I haven’t looked to see how well Belgian sides have done since then in European competitions to see if there has been any improvement.
