Jupiler League Pro Predictions: 22/04-26/04

Following the most recent fourth-round results in the Jupiler Pro League, there were significant shifts in the standings. Former leader Genk dropped to third after losing at home to Royale Union, while Club Brugge climbed to the top after their 5-0 demolishing of Gent on the road.

Charleroi were the biggest winners in the Conference League Group as they lead the six-team pack by 27 points. The other two games ended with draws. Only one team from the six teams qualifies for the Conference League playoffs.

Saint Truiden are the ones in safety at the moment, but there are still three games to be played in the Relegation Group, and their lead is just one point over Cercle Brugge, with Kortrijk four points further down, while Beerschot have been relegated.
