After defeating Al Ittihad (1-0), Club Brugge was able to smell the national title again. We list scenarios that are still possible.
With the win, the Club is always the champion
Club Brugge has its entire fate in its hands. If the Blue and the Black win at Antwerp next Sunday, it will be the 18th title in the club’s history to be won. Even with the Al-Ittihad victory over Anderlecht, the difference remains by 3 points.
After that the club cannot catch up, even in the event of defeat on the last day of play. Even if Union wins and ends in a draw, Club Brugge is still the champion.
Because of the points halving system in the playoffs, the club is one-half point ahead of the league.
At home, Club Brugge beat Antwerp 1-0.
A draw and even a defeat can be enough
Even if Club Brugge draw with Antwerp, they could potentially become champions.
If Union fails to win at Anderlecht, the gap will remain at least 3 points. In this case, we end up in the same situation as described above and Club is a sports champion.
What if Club Brugge loses in Antwerp? The address may still be in.
If the union also loses to Anderlecht. Then the score remains the same and Union can only draw on the last day of play. It is therefore not sufficient.
Will the union be expelled in the final?
