Club Brugge @ 2.75 (7/4)

Club Brugge remains a prime contender to defend their title this season based on their 2024–25 Belgian Pro League winner odds. With 19 titles, Club Brugge is the second most successful team in Belgium’s top division. Last season marked their sixth league triumph in nine years, achieved remarkably under a caretaker coach. Despite finishing the regular 30-match season in fifth place, 19 points behind leaders Union, they turned their season around during the championship playoffs. Brugge fired coach Ronny Deila in March and promoted former defender Nicky Hayen before going 10-match unbeaten in the championship group. This impressive run is expected to continue into the new season as they aim to reclaim the title.

Union Saint-Gilloise @ 3.50 (5/2)

Union Saint-Gilloise fell short of their ambition to win the title last season after 89 years of trying. They went very close last season when they led the table during the regular season but went just a point below the eventual champion, Club Brugge, after the championship playoffs. USG has been within the top three for the past three seasons, indicating their persistence in winning the league. A key player in their quest could be Cameron Puertas, after netting 11 goals and assisting 17 times. This stat made him the best player of the season in the Belgium top division.

Royal Antwerp @ 6.00 (5/1)

Royal Antwerp couldn’t defend their 22/23 crown last season after an inconsistent display during the campaign. They finished 3rd in the regular season but claimed the 6th position in the championship round. Mark Van Bommel, who was instrumental to their success two seasons ago, stepped down at the end of last season. This enabled Antwerp to appoint Jonas De Roeck to begin their squad rebuild entering the new season. The new head coach will be ready to make a positive impact on the team and could lead them to their 6th league title this season.

KRC Genk @ 6.00 (5/1)

KRC Genk were the runner-up to Royal Antwerp in the 22/23 season but went below their standard last season. Genk narrowly made it through to the championship playoffs after edging KAA Gent on goal difference. In the playoff round, they finished 5th, 13 points behind eventual champions Club Brugge. For the upcoming season, they’ve appointed Thorsten Fink to lead their charge for the league title. The 56-year-old German had a successful stint with Basel and Vissel Kobe. He will bring fresh ideas to this side and could put them on track to win the title this year.

Anderlecht @ 6.00 (5/1)

Anderlecht is the most successful team in the Belgian Pro League with 34 titles, but their last victory was seven years ago. We expect them to make a push for it this season after their resilient performance last year. They finished second to USG during the regular season and claimed the 3rd spot in the championship playoff. Anders Dreyer netted 19 goals for Anderlecht during 23-24 run, with Kasper Dolberg adding 15 more. These two players will be vital in their pursuit of the title this season.

Football Belgium Pro League 2024-25 Format & Overview

The Belgian Pro League has two phases: the regular season and the playoff rounds. The regular season involves 16 teams playing 30 matches each in a home-and-away format. After this, teams split into three groups: the Championship playoff, the Europe playoff, and the Relegation play-offs.

The top six teams enter the Championship playoff, competing for the title. They play 10 additional matches, with regular-season points halved and added to this round’s tally. The winner of this round will qualify for the group stage of the UCL following season. Also, the runner-up will play in the UCL qualifiers, while the 3rd and 4th placed teams will feature in the Europa League qualifiers.

Notably, teams ranked 7th–10th in the regular season will participate in the UEFA Conference league playoff. The winner gets one spot to play in the Conference League next season.

The bottom four teams compete in the relegation round. The 16th and 15th teams are relegated directly, while the 14th team faces the 3rd-place finisher in the Challenger Pro League for a spot in the Pro League. For the 2024/25 season, RWD Molenbeek and KAS Eupen have been relegated to the Challenger Pro League, while Beerschot and Dender EH have been promoted to the Belgian Pro League.

History of The Belgian Pro League

The Belgian Pro League, also known as the Jupiler Pro League due to sponsorship, is Belgium’s premier football league. Established in 1895 by the Royal Belgian Football Association, the league was first won by FC Liégeois. The league was renamed from the Belgian Pro League in 2015–16 and has been sponsored by AB InBev, the brewers of Jupiler beer, since 2014.

Sixteen different clubs have won the Belgian championship, with RSC Anderlecht leading with 34 titles, followed by Club Brugge KV (19), Union Saint-Gilloise (11), and Standard Liège (10). The competition achieved its highest UEFA ranking in 1979 and 1980, occupying the third spot.

Outright Winner 24-25 Jupiler Pro League Predictions

Here are our Jupiler Pro League predictions for 2024/25 season:

Union Saint-Gilloise To Win @ 3.50 (5/2)

Union Saint-Gilloise is a strong favorite to win the title this season, based on their impressive performances over the past three seasons in Belgium. They topped the regular season table twice and finished level on points with Genk in the 22/23 season. Despite dominating the regulation, they have often faltered in the championship playoffs, missing the title by a single point last season. USG boasted the longest winning streak (8 matches) and unbeaten streak (24 matches) last campaign.

Mohamed El Amine Amoura, Gustaf Nilsson, and Cameron Puertas were crucial to their performance last season after hitting double figures in goals. With this firepower and consistent performance in the regular season and playoffs, this could be a successful campaign for USG. Most 24/25 Jupiler Pro League season predictions support this outcome.

High Odds Winner Prediction – Anderlecht @ 6.00 (5/1)

Anderlecht is the most successful team in the Belgian Pro League, and they can’t be written off in any title discussion. They recorded the 2nd best wins (18) and highest goals scored (58) after USG during the last regular season. They lost just one of their last nine games in the regular 30 matches before the playoff but could only get the 3rd spot in the championship round. If they can maintain an excellent performance against their fellow title contenders, they could reclaim the league this season. This betting option is available on the mainstream betting apps for football.

Belgian Pro League 2024/25 Matchday 1 Betting Pick

Anderlecht to Beat Sint-Truiden @ 1.5 (1/2)

Anderlecht would like to start their campaign on a strong note and will relish a win against St Truidense. The last time Anderlecht lost to this opponent was in 2018. Since then, they’ve won 11 and drawn two of their 13 encounters across all competitions. Notably, Anderlecht ended the regular season strongly last campaign, losing just one of their last nine matches. We expect them to extend that brilliant form into the new season and get a win here.
