However, as only the champion Aalst, as well as Hoogstraten, Sint-Niklaas and Geel-Meerhout had got their remunerated football license, required to be able to enter the play-offs, Coxyde and Deinze did not enter the play-offs.http://sport.be.msn.com/fr/football/d3d4/article.html?Article_ID=512331 Geel-Meerhout 'licencié' pour le tour final May 15, 2011 sport.be From the third division B, Virton qualified as the winner of period 1, Bertrix qualified as the 3rd-placed team in the final table and Zaventem as the 4th-placed team.

Anderlecht and Gent started the season in the qualifying rounds of the Champions League, respectively in the champions and non-champions path. Both were eliminated and dropped into the Europa League. Anderlecht suffered a major mental blow after losing out on penalties to Partizan Belgrade, whereas Gent was no match for Dynamo Kyiv. In the Europa League, Gent performed above expectations as they first knocked out Feyenoord and then came close to progress through the group stage, only losing to French league leaders Lille on the final day, earlier defeating Levski Sofia from Bulgaria and Portuguese club Sporting CP at home. After some mediocre results in the group stage, Anderlecht only scraped through on the last day as they beat Hajduk Split and Zenit St. Petersburg also won their match against AEK Athens. In the knockout round, Anderlecht was blown away 0-3 and 0–2 by Ajax, although their victory of the season before had given them high hopes before the match. Cercle Brugge, Genk and Club Brugge started respectively in the second qualifying round, third qualifying round and playoff round of the Europa League. Cercle Brugge beat Finnish team TPS Turku before narrowly losing out to Anorthosis Famagusta of Cyprus. Genk also beat a team from Turku, namely Inter Turku, after losing out to Porto. Club Brugge did reach the group stage by beating Dinamo Minsk, but then scored only three points in six matches after a very disappointing string of results against Villarreal, PAOK and Dinamo Zagreb.
