The Eerste Divisie 2017/18 or (like the Belgian Pro League ) after the sponsor, the Belgian brewery Jupiler , Jupiler League is the 62nd season of the second highest Dutch football league. It began on August 18, 2017 and ends on May 20, 2018 with the final round of the play-offs.

VVV-Venlo rose as champions of the previous season and NAC Breda as play-off winners in the Eredivisie . They were replaced by the relegated Go Ahead Eagles Deventer and NEC Nijmegen (loser of the play-off final). Jong AZ rose as the master of the Tweede Divisie , Achilles '29 was the only relegated.

Season course

Since the master Jong Ajax was not eligible for promotion, the runner-up, Fortuna Sittard , rose to the Eredivisie . The 2009/10 Eredivisie champions , FC Twente Enschede , played second class again for the first time since the 1980s. Due to the league reform in autumn 2017, there were no relegators in and no promoted from the Tweede Divisie .

mode

The 20 teams play against each other in home and return games, so that at the end of the season each team has 38 games to show. The season is divided into four seasons of 9 games each, the first two game days are not included in the relay system. The performance from the relays is transferred to the overall table.

The league champion is promoted directly to the Eredivisie. Should one of the second teams of Eredivisie clubs become champions, the next-placed club moves up. Places 16 and 17 of the Eredivisie and places 2 to 9 of the Eerste Divisie play for the relegation in three play-off rounds, each with a round trip. Second teams must surrender their places in the play-offs; a relay win also decides on the allocation of the last place to participate in the first play-off round. The two winners of the first round will meet the 16th and 17th of the Eredivisie in round 2. At the same time, places 2 to 5 of the Eerste Divisie play against each other. In round 3, the four winners from the second round meet. Ideally, if you win, two teams from the Eerste Divisie will be promoted. The four reserve teams of the honorary divisions Ajax, PSV, FC Utrecht and AZ are not eligible for promotion and therefore do not take part in the play-offs. In the event that the professionals are relegated, a reserve team faces forced relegation.

As part of a reform of the league pyramid, the KNVB decided in a meeting on October 2, 2017 that no team from the Eerste Divisie will be relegated and none from the Tweede Divisie this season.

^[a]Due to an administrative error on the part of the KNVB , Teun Bijleveld was not prevented from playing in the Ajax - NEC game, although he saw his fifth yellow card one game earlier and should have received a suspension from one game. The game was canceled and rescheduled on April 16.

^[b]The game Jong PSV - Go Ahead Eagles on April 10, 2018 was canceled when the score was 6: 0 in the 85th minute due to thunderstorms. The KNVB later decided that the remaining time of the canceled game would not be replayed. The intermediate result of 6: 0 was adopted as the official final result.

^[c]The game FC Oss - Jong AZ on September 15, 2017 (final score 0: 2) was declared invalid by the KNVB because three players over 23 years of age were on the field at Alkmaar for nine minutes instead of the two permitted. The game was repeated on October 23, 2017.

Relegation

The teams in places 16 and 17 in the Eredivisie and the eight best teams in the Eerste Divisie, which can neither be promoted directly nor are second teams, play for relegation in three play-off rounds, each with a home and return leg. The two winners of the first round will meet the 16th and 17th of the Eredivisie in round 2. At the same time, places 2 to 5 of the Eerste Divisie play against each other. In the final round, the four winners from the second round meet.
