Carvalhó and Marítimo are scheduled to face each other in Andebol 1 on 29 August 2026. The fixture marks the opening round for both clubs in the Portuguese handball league. Home side Carvalhó enter the table in 12th position with zero games, zero wins and zero points so far. Marítimo sit one place higher in 11th, also with a blank record of 0-0-0-0.
The recent results for both sides come from previous campaigns. Carvalhó's last five matches include a 26-27 loss to Anayasona, a 28-36 defeat against Benfica and a 33-22 win over Wormain. Marítimo have played Braga twice in their recent history, winning 37-33 and losing 30-27, alongside results against Belenenses and Povoa de Varzim.
By then both teams will have played their first league game of the season. The standings will shift from zero points to whatever the result delivers. Andebol 1 has its own rhythm — the opening round rarely tells the full story.
Carvalhó will look to build on their 2024-25 campaign, where they secured a 29-25 victory against Albicastrense. Marítimo's recent form shows mixed results: they beat Povoa de Varzim 35-30 but lost to Braga 30-27 in April. Things came to a head when both sides met Belenenses, splitting the results.
The match kicks off at 16:00 local time. No goals, substitutions or statistics are available yet — this is a blank slate for both clubs. The first points of the season will define the early table.
