The Bartolomeu Perestrelo Pavilion in Funchal hosts this afternoon, at 6:30 PM, one of the most anticipated matches of the fifth early round of the Betclic Women's Championship regular season.
Madeira Andebol SAD faces Benfica in a clash between two teams that have not yet tasted defeat this season. With three rounds played, both the Madeiran team and the Lisbon club share the lead, each with nine points.
The match presents an opportunity for Madeira Andebol to test their strength against the current national champions and aim to counter Benfica's recent dominance, having won the last five championships. However, the Madeiran team has positive memories from past encounters, including a draw in Funchal and a victory in Lisbon during the 2023/24 season, when they also won the Portuguese Cup.
