Notes:
  1. ^ Initially, Lokeren-Temse had not applied for a footballing license to play at the highest level of Belgian football. After the deadline had passed, the club had decided to apply for a license after all, but on 17 April this was denied. The club was therefore initially not allowed to participate in the promotion play-offs but appealed the decision, which allowed them to participate (instead of next placed Lierse). A final verdict still needs to be given, meaning that even if Lokeren-Temse were to win the promotion play-offs, they might still be denied promotion.[6]
  2. ^ The Pro League approved the new competition format for the coming seasons by the end of February. Part of the haggling between club presidents resulted in a new rule for the ongoing season which entered with immediate effect, stating that a minimum of four U23 would always need to be present in the Challenger Pro League. As only three teams are currently present, all three will be spared of relegation in case of ending in a relegation spot. At the time of the decision, there were still seven matchdays to play and Jong Genk was in a relegation spot. In case they overtake a non-U23 team, that team would however have face relegation.[7] After the penultimate matchday, with Jong Genk now mathematically certain of finishing in 15th, the Pro League announced that Jong Genk had been relegated after all. Apparently, the league reform as decided and announced at the end of February was still not officially approved.[8] On 16 June 2025, just weeks before the start of the 2025–26 Challenger Pro League, the Pro League announced that the High Council of the Belgian FA had approved the reform, meaning Jong Genk would be able to remain at the second level.[9] The One week later, on 1 July 2025, Francs Borains, Lokeren-Temse and Seraing together launched a formal appeal against the reform citing it unfair that U23 cannot be relegated whilst non-U23 teams can. Should the Belgian Competition Authority rule in their favor, the start of the 2025–26 Challenger Pro League could be postponed.[10] Meanwhile the new calendar, including Jong Genk, was already released on 3 July 2025.
  3. ^ On 12 November 2024, Deinze was deducted 3 points for outstanding unpaid player wages.[11] One month later, on 11 December 2024, the club was declared bankrupt and all its results were voided. The club will be considered last and only one other team will be relegated.[12]

Notes

  1. ^ While the announcement of Timmy Simons's signature at Westerlo was already made on 23 May 2024, Bart Goor remained in charge as caretaker manager for the last match of the season and Simons thus only officially took up the position as soon as the 2023–24 season ended.
  2. ^ David Hubert was initially appointed as caretaker manager, but on 10 October 2024 it was confirmed he was appointed as full time manager.[37]
  3. ^ While the announcement of Chris Coleman's signature at OH Leuven was already made on 30 November 2024, Hans Somers remained in charge as caretaker manager for the upcoming match two days later against Anderlecht and Coleman only officially took up the position the day after that match.
