Vilaverdense take on the visitors Os Belenenses in the round 26 match of Liga Portugal 2. The match will be played on Monday, February 18th at Estádio da Capital do Móvel (Paços de Ferreira).
Vila Verde have noticeably improved under new management. The black and whites were founded back in the mid-20th century but lingered at a semi-amateur level. It wasn't until 2020 that there was an impetus for progress: investors from distant Canada, Länk, became interested in this project. With an addition to their name, the team secured promotion twice in a row. However, in 2023, promotion was secured through a tough playoff. At the new level, they struggle to make a mark - minimal victories, just over one point on average per match. They even lost to Porto II.

Belénenses are clearly stagnating in its progress now. The Tarts have a glorious history, including a championship title, albeit the only one in their entire history. However, in the past decade, there was a division of the project, and essentially, it didn't benefit any of the newly created teams. The variant that was considered the holder of all trophies had to start from a semi-amateur level and quickly rose through the ranks, culminating in victory in the playoffs in 2023 and promotion to Segunda. But there, the club lingered at the bottom of the table. They haven't won for a long time, at most played to a draw. They also ended with a 1-2 loss to Leixões.
Last spring, the clubs crossed paths for the first time, and then the Tarts won at home with a draw away. But at the Segunda level, the black and whites won 2-0 away.
