What do we know before game day 22?
–> The 8 play-off teams and the 4 play-down teams are known
–> Amicale has locked the first place
–> Etzella has locked the second place
–> places 3-8 remain undecided
What remains possible?
–> Basket Esch can secure third place with a win or a loss by Résidence
–> Résidence can jump to third place with a victory and a loss by Esch at the same time
–> Plenty of tie-scenarios, including 4-team-ties (to determine places 4-7 or 5-8), remain possible depending on the outcomes of the games. In these tie-scenarios, all games of the regular season between the teams involved in the tie-scenario will be considered and the seedings will be be done accordingly. For example, Arantia Larochette could finish 5th or 8th depending on the outcomes of the games, Résidence can finish 3rd but also fall down to 6th place. It is nearly impossible to list every single possibility, stay tuned on Saturday evening to get the final ranking!

18:30 Gréngewald Hueschtert – AB Contern
With only 3 game days remaining, some changes in the final standings before the semi-finals are still possible. Amicale Steinsel is the team that needs to put pressure on AB Contern.

Dudelange and Bertrange are tied in the standings in second place, they will meet in a (probably) decisive head to head matchup to determine who will take the second place in the standings.
