City and stadium clashes

Based on the decision received from the relevant local authorities and as confirmed by the national association, Union Saint-Gilloise and RSC Anderlecht, who both share the same stadium for home matches, cannot play at home on the same night.

In accordance with paragraphs 23.02 and 23.03 of the competition regulations and the associated principles set by the Club Competitions Committee, should both clubs be drawn at home in the same sequence a reversal is needed. Union Saint-Gilloise being the league runner-up, will have priority.

Therefore, the match involving Union Saint-Gilloise will not be reversed, and the match involving RSC Anderlecht will be reversed, irrespective of the opponents of either club and the order of the matches.
