Marítimo fans will occupy approximately 70% of the Caldeirão dos Barreiros Stadium in the next match against Benfica. This is the first time in three years that Marítimo supporters are returning to home games against the major teams of Portuguese football.
The three-year absence is due to the ultras' protest against measures implemented by the club, which included the elimination of certain privileges. During this period, fans refrained from attending games against the top clubs.
The expected attendance for the match against Benfica represents a significant milestone for the club, which finally sees its supporters returning in force. The atmosphere promises to be intense in the stands of the Caldeirão dos Barreiros.
This return of fans comes at an important moment for Marítimo, which will be able to count on the massive support of its followers in a highly competitive match against one of the strongest teams in the Portuguese league.
