Top Belgian Teams Face Tough Path to Croky Cup Final

AA Gent, Club Brugge, Union and Anderlecht will have to dip their toes to reach the final of the Croky Cup, because the four top teams ended up in the same half of the table.

KAA Gent takes on Club Brugge in the Battle of Flanders. Two years ago, Ghent was able to beat blue-black in the semi-finals on the way to winning the cup.

The winner of that match will in any case play against a Brussels club in the semi-finals, because Union and Anderlecht were drawn against each other for a derby in the Duden Park. Can Anderlecht win again after 7 consecutive defeats against Union?

Cup holder Antwerp has an easier route to a new final on paper, with a match against OH Leuven in the quarter-finals.

KV Oostende, the only remaining second division team in the quarter-finals, can try to earn a place in the semi-finals against RWDM in front of its own audience.

The quarter-finals are scheduled for January 16, 17 and 18, 2024. The exact playing times will be decided next week. The semi-finals will be played in a first leg (on January 23, 24 or 25) and a return leg (27, 28 and 29 February).
