Clash of extremes on behalf of the 18th day of Liga Portugal, where we will see an unbalanced meeting between Maritimo (17th) and the outgoing champion, FC Porto (3rd) this Wednesday, February 1 kick-off scheduled for 8 p.m. . The match will be played at the Estádio dos Barreiros in Funchal on the island of Madeira. The Maritimo is currently positioned in an uncomfortable penultimate place in the Portuguese championship with already 5 points to take on the 15th and first non-relegation, Gil Vicente. The club has still won its last 2 games played at home on its island recently and it will be necessary to maintain this state of mind to embark body and soul on its maintenance operation. Note that these are the only 2 home wins since the start of the season. For its part, Porto has just registered its name for the first time in its history on the League Cup list by dismissing Sporting Portugal (2-0) in the final last Saturday. Thanks to this great victory, this brings to 5 the number of consecutive successes of Sergio Conceicao’s men.
