Sporting know their League Cup quarter-final opponents and kick-off time | OneFootball

Sporting already know the date and time of their Allianz Cup opener. The Lions will host Marítimo in the competition’s quarter-finals, in a match scheduled for 27 October at 8:15pm at the José Alvalade Stadium. Liga Portugal officially confirmed the schedule for the round this Friday.

The side coached by Rui Borges will therefore be the first of the eight teams still in the competition to take to the field at this stage. The clash against the Madeira side will be a single-leg tie and a place in the competition’s Final Four, set for January 2027, will be at stake.

Marítimo, champions of Liga Portugal 2 last season, secured their place in the quarter-finals along with Porto, Sporting, Benfica, Braga, Famalicão, Gil Vicente and Académico de Viseu. The draw paired the Lions with the Madeira team.

In addition to Sporting v Marítimo, the round also features Porto v Académico de Viseu, scheduled for 28 October at 8:30pm. The remaining two matches will take place the following day, 29 October: Braga v Famalicão at 6:45pm, and Benfica v Gil Vicente at 8:45pm.
