The first stage of the season in the Belgium Jupiler Pro League is in the past and the battle on all fronts is getting more and more intense. It seems that this year, there will be a new champion, although the gap between the first Union Saint-Gilloise and the second Club Brugge is only 6 points.
KV Oostende are close to the relegation zone and their top priority will be to secure their place in Belgium’s top tier. Racing Genk had a bit of mixed results lately and they will be determined to find some good form in the rest of the season.
Sporting Charleroi fancy all the chances for the Championship Group as they have an equal amount of points as the fourth placed team of Anderlecht. OH Leuven’s main job will be to avoid the relegation play-off.
Beerschot Wilrijk are struggling with life in the top tier and their results reflect on their poor form. However, for their consolation, there are some teams in the division that have conceded more goals than them. Anderlecht’s ambition for the title seems an utopia for the moment but they still remain a tough opponent.
