Liga Challenger Pro Belgia

Challenger Pro League adalah divisi tertinggi kedua dalam sistem liga sepak bola Belgia, satu tingkat di bawah Liga Pro Belgia. Itu dibuat oleh Asosiasi Sepak Bola Kerajaan Belgia pada tahun 2016, menggantikan Divisi Kedua Belgia.

Sejarah
Divisi Pertama Belgia B dibentuk pada tahun 2016 sebagai penerus Divisi Kedua Belgia menyusul perombakan sistem liga sepak bola Belgia yang menyebabkan jumlah klub profesional dikurangi menjadi 24 dan jumlah tim di tingkat kedua piramida sepak bola menjadi 8.

Selama era Divisi Kedua Belgia dari tahun 1973 hingga 2016, pemenang divisi kedua dan pemenang play-off dipromosikan ke divisi pertama. Mulai tahun 2016 dan seterusnya, pemenang divisi dua tidak lagi dijamin mendapat promosi. Liga dibagi dalam dua periode dari 15 pertandingan. Pemenang suatu periode bersaing satu sama lain di final. Jika sebuah tim memenangkan kedua periode, tidak ada final yang dimainkan dan otomatis naik ke level tertinggi. Pada tahun 2017, Lierse menjadi juara liga, tetapi promosi tidak diperbolehkan karena mereka tidak memenangkan satu periode pun. Antwerpen dan SV Roeselare bermain di final.
