Dender EH degrades to the Challenger Pro League, while Lommel SK promotes to the Jupiler Pro League. The club from Lommel secured promotion by drawing in Denderleeuw. The first leg had Lommel already won 3-2, so the visitors did not have to take any risks. In the opening phase, it was very nervous, with Dender EH trying to take the initiative. The home team threatened the most, especially through the busy Nsimba. At Lommel, substitute Eyoma struggled after Tolinsson fell out during the warm-up. Fortunately for the visitors, goalkeeper Pieklak was always standing in the way. Real big chances were scarce for the break, but the tension was always in the air in the Dender Football Complex. After the break, Lommel came sharper. Almost immediately after the break, it was almost a goal when De Grand pushed the ball past Gallon, but the post brought salvation for Dender EH. Dender EH also continued to believe in a comeback. A quarter of an hour before time, Berte seemed to have scored the equalizer, but once again the crossbar was in the way of the home team. In the final phase, Dender EH pulled out all the stops. Berte even tried in minute 94 with a spectacular overhead kick, but his attempt shattered on the crossbar. The stadium held its breath, but it was not meant to be. For Lommel, the final whistle was pure release. The club promotes to the top division of Belgian football for the first time in 23 years.
