U21 Anderlecht certain of a place in 1B

YOUTH After Monday's 0-4 victory against AA Gent, the U21-team of Anderlecht is sure of a place in 1B next season. Just like Racing Genk, Anderlecht can't fall out of the top four anymore. Club Brugge, Standard, AA Gent and to a much lesser extent Charleroi are still eligible for the remaining two places.


Club Brugge and AA Gent both still need the maximum of points to get past Anderlecht and Genk. But because those two teams still play each other, they can't both get past Anderlecht and Genk.

Below the current standings. In total there are 22 matches to play.

1. Racing Genk: 44 points (16 matches)
2. Anderlecht: 44 (19)
