Notes:
- ^ The regular season winner (Genk) will qualify for the Europa League second round if they do not earn a Champions League berth.
- ^ The winner of the 2024–25 Belgian Cup (Club Brugge or Anderlecht) qualifies for the Europa League play-off round (if they have not already qualified for the Champions League). The Europa League second round and the European competition play-off berths would be passed to the next two highest-placed teams.
