The 2022–23 season was the 123rd season in the existence of Cercle Brugge K.S.V. and the club's 28th consecutive season in the top flight of Belgian football. In addition to the domestic league, Cercle Brugge also participated in this season's edition of the Belgian Cup.
Points obtained during the regular season were halved (and rounded up) before the start of the play-offs. Gent and Standard started on 28 points, Westerlo on 26, and Cercle Brugge on 25. As the points of Standard and Westerlo were rounded up, in case of ties they would always be ranked below the team (or teams) they are tied with. The deciding factor after that would be finishing position in the regular season.
