During the 2008–09 season Anderlecht competed in the Belgian First Division, Belgian Cup, and Champions League. Anderlecht competed in the Belgian Super Cup as cup-winners, but lost to Standard Liège.
After the 34 league matches, they ended with 77 points tied for first place. As Standard Liège had the same number of points and the same number of matches won, test matches were organised to determine the winner. Anderlecht drew 1–1 at home but then lost 1–0 at Standard and thus ended in second position. In the cup they were eliminated in the early rounds by Mechelen, who progressed on to lose the final.
Anderlecht failed to progress past the second qualifying round of UEFA Champions League.
