The regular season in the 2024-25 edition of the Jupiler Pro League has now concluded – and what a rollercoaster ride it was.
Each matchday had fans across the globe on the edge of their seats, but there is so much more action to come.
We now move into the play-off stage of the Belgian top-flight season, with the division breaking up into three separate mini leagues.
Four teams compete in the Relegation Round to avoid the dreaded drop, while six lock horns in the Europa Conference League Play-Off Group, a collection of sides which includes Standard Liege.
And, of course, there is the Championship Round, which always attracts the most attention and is our focus today.
Genk top the table ahead of the first of the 10 matchdays in this play-off group, followed by Club Brugge, Union Saint-Gilloise, Anderlecht, Royal Antwerp and Gent.
Below, we take a look at the outright football odds for the Championship Round on 777 Sport.
And do not forget, when the Pro League action returns after the international break, there will be a range of pre-match and in-play online betting markets available on all of the games.

Championship Round Betting Tips
If you are looking to place a futures bet on the Championship Round, there really is not much value to be found with Genk.
The leaders are massive favourites to claim the title after a hugely successful regular season, in which they won 21 matches.
Can anyone stop them? Well, the best bet in that regard is defending champions Club Brugge, who trail Genk by only four points for the start of the Championship Round.
Now without the distraction of the Champions League, Nicky Hayen’s side can focus solely on the league, with the Croky Cup final against Anderlecht not scheduled until May 4.
Club Brugge were the leading scorers in the regular season with 65 goals, which were spread around the team in the form of Hans Vanaken (9 goals), Gustaf Nilsson (9 goals), Christos Tzolis (8 goals), Ferran Jutgla (8 goals) and the now departed Andreas Skov Olsen (8 goals).
At odds of 3.50, wagering on Club Brugge to retain the title could be a great bet, with the first showdown against Genk coming up on April 13.
While USG had the meanest and toughest defence in the regular season, their reliance on attacking stars Franjo Ivanovic and Promise Akinpelu (each on 11 goals) leads us to believe that they cannot make up the six-point gap to Genk.
USG were the lowest scorers in the top four with 49 goals and an injury to either Ivanovic or Akinpelu would likely derail their Championship Round campaign.
