We are three games away from the end of the Belgian Jupiler Pro League season...
And, that means we are three games away from the eventual champion being crowned (which makes for a nice change compared to the top 6 European leagues).
As it stands there are (technically) four teams in with a chance of becoming champion: Gent sit on top with 43 points, Anderlecht and Club Brugge are hot on their heels, both on 41 points; and, in fourth, with a rank outside chance (but still a chance!) is Standard Liège on 36 points.
Gent have never before been champions of Belgium's top-tier football league. So, I would like that it to happen for them...
Anyway, I wanted to look at the top 6's record against each other in the normal season, ie the first 30 gameweeks. Looking at this mini-league, Standard Liège comes out on top in terms of points taken from the rest of the top 6 teams. However, they were really an all or nothing team: they won 6, lost 4. Club Brugge lost the fewest, and were generally a more consistent team than the rest of their peers. I've highlighted the best record of various measures in green and the worst in orange.
