2019–20 Belgian First Division B

The 2019–20 season of the Belgian First Division B began in August 2019 and was scheduled to end in April 2020 but will eventually conclude on 2 August 2020 with the return leg of the promotion playoff.

Since mid-March all matches had been postponed due to the coronavirus pandemic, which was just a few days before the return leg of the promotion play-offs was to be played. A few weeks later, Lokeren was declared bankrupt and ceased to exist, while both Roeselare and Virton were refused a professional football license due to financial difficulties, meaning they were both relegated and no relegation play-offs were necessary.[1][2] On 15 May 2020, the general meeting of the Belgian Pro League clubs decided to end the season, with the exception of the return leg of the promotion play-offs. OH Leuven and Beerschot were forced to find a date and location for the return leg to decide promotion, before the start of the 2020–21 season on 7 August 2020. In case both teams did not come to an agreement, or the COVID-19 pandemic prevented the match to be played in time, Westerlo will be promoted instead as team which scored the most points overall.[3] As the Belgian health safety council has prohibited sports competitions until the end of July and public events until the end of August, the match was scheduled to be played behind closed doors in the first weekend of August, just a few days before the start of the next season. Just two days before the match was scheduled to take place, the decision was overturned and instead the Belgian First Division A was expanded to 18 teams, meaning both Beerschot and OH Leuven were promoted. The final will still be played to determine the champion.

Format changes

While the regular season format remains unchanged, consisting of two separate round-robin tournaments, the end of season playoff system has been altered somewhat, specifically the Europa League playoffs will now be played by 16 instead of 12 teams, meaning that now the top six teams in the aggregate standings of the First Division B will take part in these playoffs, including the team which has gained promotion. Until the 2018–19 season, only the three highest finishers (not including the promoting team) would enter.

As a consequence, from this season on only two teams will not enter the Europa League playoffs, namely the bottom two teams in the aggregate standings. Instead of a relegation tournament with the bottom four teams as was previously the case, now only these two teams will play the relegation playoffs, in which both teams will meet up to five times in a row, in a system similar to the one used a few seasons ago in the 2014–15 Belgian Pro League, with the team which finished 7th during the regular season starting with a three-point bonus and hosting three of the five home matches. The team with the fewest points after five matches will be relegated to the 2020–21 Belgian First Amateur Division.[4]

  1. On 1 November 2019 the match between OH Leuven and Union SG was stopped during the second half at a 0–0 scoreline, when part of the floodlights in the stadium stopped working. The lights had been malfunctioning several times throughout the match and when the total time of delay exceeded 30 minutes the referee had to stop the match as per the rules of the Belgian FA. After investigations,[21] the commission of the Belgian FA ruled on 2 January 2020 that OHL was to lose the match by a forfeit score of 0–5.[22] OH Leuven appealed the decision at the Belgian court for sports arbitrage (BAS) which ruled on 31 January 2020 that the match needed to be replayed in full as the club could not be deemed accountable for the floodlight failure and the referee had insufficiently motivated his decision to stop the match.[23] The match was replayed on 11 February 2020.
  2. On 10 September 2019, Roeselare was declared bankrupt by the West-Flemish corporation court for unpaid outstanding debt, thereby losing control to a curator who prohibited the players from training or playing a match. The management of Roeselare appealed the decision, but as the ruling was scheduled to occur after the match against Virton they were not able to play the match. The league's calendar manager and Pro League management have suggested three possible dates to Virton on which to reschedule the match, but as Virton found these to be insuitable due to unavailability of their manager, the Pro League ruled on 13 September 2019 that Roeselare would lose the match with a forfeit score of 0-5. A few days later, the declaration of bankruptcy was uplifted and Roeselare could again take part in the competition.[24]
  3. In preparation for the oncoming storm Ciara, all matches of Sunday 9 February 2020 in the 2019–20 Belgian First Division A and 2019–20 Belgian First Division B were postponed, but were all completed just a few days later.[26]
  4. On 25 January 2020 the match between Virton and Beerschot ended in 1–0, with the only goal of the match the result of a quickly taken free kick which occurred while the referee was giving instructions to the Beerschot players and was facing away from the ball. Beerschot appealed the result, citing an erroneous decision by the referee. The referee department admitted the error but cited the rules of the game were implicitly followed, however the arbitration committee eventually demanded the match to be replayed, rescheduling it to 2 March 2020.[27] A few hours after the news had spread that the match would need to be replayed, Virton announced they, in turn, would appeal the annulment. Westerlo joined the appeal a few hours later, citing unfairness as the match would be replayed after all other matches had been played, giving Beerschot an unfair advantage.[28] Ultimately the replay was scheduled for 26 July but the match did not take place. [29] Both teams were then sanction with forfait loss by the Belgian FA.[30]

Notes:
  1. On 12 May 2020, Virton were refused both a professional football license and a remunerated football license, meaning they were relegated two levels, to the 2020–21 Belgian Second Amateur Division.[2]
  2. On 11 May 2020, Roeselare were refused a professional football license, meaning they were relegated to the 2020–21 Belgian First Amateur Division.[1]
  3. Lokeren went bankrupt and ceased to exist.[31]

Promotion play-offs

The winners of the opening tournament and the closing tournament compete in a two-legged match to determine the division champion, who will be promoted to the 2020–21 Belgian First Division A. The team finishing highest in the aggregate table will host the return leg. In case a single team wins both the opening and the closing tournament, that team will be promoted automatically and no play-offs will be organized.

On 8 November 2019, OH Leuven assured itself of winning the opening tournament following an away win at Virton. As such OH Leuven was certain of playing at least the promotion play-offs at the end of the season. On 21 February, following a loss against Union SG, OH Leuven could no longer win the closing tournament, meaning that promotion play-offs will be necessary to determine the overall champion. One week later, Beerschot won the second period, becoming the opponent of OH Leuven in the promotion play-offs.

After the first leg was played, the second leg was postponed due to the COVID-19 pandemic.[33] Mid-May, the Belgian association of professional football clubs decided that the second leg should take place behind closed doors in the first weekend of August to determine the champion and promoting team, on 2 August 2020. In case the final match could not be played, Westerlo would be promoted as the team with the most points in the aggregate table.[3] However, on 31 July 2020, just two days before the actual final match, the decision was overturned and instead the 2020–21 Belgian First Division A would be expanded to 18 (from 16) teams, meaning both OH Leuven and Beerschot would be promoted. It was decided the promotional final would still be played to determine the champion of the 2019–20 Belgian First Division B.

Summary
Team 1 Agg. Team 2 1st leg 2nd leg
Beerschot 5–1 OH Leuven 1–0 4–1

First Leg

The first match saw Beerschot starting strong, with Kenneth Schuermans nearly deflecting a free-kick by Raphael Holzhauser into his own goal in just the first minute. OH Leuven replied with a long ball to Mathieu Maertens who saw the ball tackled away from him in last instance by Joren Dom, else he would have had a free run on goal. With 20 minutes played, Frédéric Frans also almost scored an own goal, after deflecting a free kick against the cross bar with Mike Vanhamel beaten, but a few seconds later on the other end it was his teammate Tarik Tissoudali opening the score for Beerschot, after first holding off former Beerschot player Jan Van den Bergh and then slotting in the ball past Laurent Henkinet. From that moment, Beerschot took over, forcing Henkinet to several saves, twice through a Joren Dom header, once after a shot by Marius Noubissi.

At the start of the second half, Vincent Euvrard brought on offensive winger Yannick Aguemon with the hope of creating more chances, but it was Beerschot who nearly scored immediately after the break, with Frans getting a free header after a Tissoudali run, but being unable to reach the ball completely, harmlessly sending it over the bar. From that moment, OH Leuven got more and more into the match, but both Kamal Sowah and Thomas Henry forgot to send a pass to Jérémy Perbet, who twice ran well to find the open space but did not get the ball. Beerschot suddenly scored a second goal, again through Tissoudali, but saw it disallowed by the VAR for offside. OH Leuven kept pushing for an away goal, but both Maertens (not enough power behind the shot) and Aguemon (shot wide) failed their attempts. Ten minutes before time, Henry got the best chance for OH Leuven, but his close-range header was miraculously saved by Vanhamel with an instinctive reflex.

Second Leg

In an empty stadium in Leuven, and no longer with the promotion at stake as both clubs were now certain of being promoted, Beerschot took the initiative in the first minutes of the second leg, with minor attempts by Tissoudali and Noubissi before OH Leuven took control. Both Maertens and Henru had efforts on goal which were saved by Vanhamel, while Sowah aimed a long-range strike against the bottom of the crossbar with Vanhamel beaten, but just inches too high for the opening goal. Beerschot was suffering, but took the lead out of the blue just before half time, as a sharp corner kick by Holzhauser resulted in an own-goal following a deflection by Schuermans, the scoreline not reflecting the flow of play going into the break. OH Leuven now needed three goals, but was not as efficient as Beerschot, as early in the second half Frédéric Duplus fumbled and allowed Tissoudali to easily tap in the second goal. Ten minutes later Noubissi scored the third from a sharp angle. In the final minutes, Perbet scored the consolation goal for the home team through a header, while Euloge Placca Fessou set the final score at 1–4. Beerschot thus won the tie by an aggregate score of 5–1, becoming 2019–20 Belgian First Division B champions, while OH Leuven was promoted as well.

Play-offs III

The relegation playoffs, more commonly known as playoffs 3, were scheduled to be played by the two bottom teams in the overall season standings. These two teams would play a separate competition, playing each other five times between 20 March and 26 April, with the team which finished higher during the regular season starting with three bonus points and home advantage in the first match.

On 16 February 2020, following a 0–2 loss against Virton, Lokeren could no longer avoid these playoffs. One week later, following a draw away to Roeselare, Lokeren was also sure of finishing last and thus would start with a three-point deficit. On the final matchday on 28 February 2020, Roeselare only drew away to Lommel, meaning they would have become the opponents of Lokeren in Play-offs III.

Initially, these playoffs were postponed due to the coronavirus pandemic, but in the end, they were canceled as on 20 April 2020 Lokeren was declared bankrupt and ceased to exist.[34] Following a merge with KSV Temse a new club was created, Lokeren-Temse, starting at the fourth level (Belgian Second Amateur Division).[31] As such, Roeselare would have been saved, but three weeks later on 11 May 2020 they were refused a professional football license, meaning they were still relegated to the 2020–21 Belgian First Amateur Division.[1]
