Thanks to these results, STVV closes the Relegation Play-Off as the winner, with a two-point lead over Cercle. Kortrijk and Beerschot ended up third and fourth respectively, and had been certain of relegation for some time.

Cercle Brugge will now have to save himself through barrages against the winner of the Promotion Play-Off from the Challenger Pro League. On Sunday, Patro Eisden plays the return match against Lokeren-Temse and defends a 1-2 lead from the first game.
