Legend: Blue = home team win; Yellow = draw; Red = away team win.
Notes:

1. The match between Anderlecht and La Gantoise (15th day played after the 30th) ended with the score of 1–2 in favor of the "Buffalos". But the Sports Committee inflicts a loss by forfeit (0–5) to the "Mauves" because they have fielded an unqualified player.
