1. Founding and Heritage
- Founded in 1922, Vitória Guimarães is based in the historic city of Guimarães, often referred to as the "Cradle of Portugal" because it was the birthplace of the first king of Portugal, Afonso Henriques. The club is closely tied to the city's identity and pride.
2. Nickname: "Os Conquistadores" (The Conquerors)
- The club is nicknamed "Os Conquistadores," which is a tribute to Guimarães’ historical role in the foundation of Portugal. The club sees itself as representing the warrior spirit of the Portuguese people.
3. Strong Fanbase
- Vitória Guimarães has one of the most passionate and loyal fanbases in Portugal. The supporters are known for creating a vibrant atmosphere at their home ground, Estádio D. Afonso Henriques, which has a capacity of around 30,000. The ultras group, "White Angels," is famous for their enthusiastic support.
- Despite not being from a major city like Lisbon or Porto, Vitória Guimarães regularly ranks as one of the best-supported clubs in Portugal in terms of attendance.
4. Rivalry with SC Braga
- Vitória Guimarães has a fierce rivalry with SC Braga, their neighbors from the nearby city of Braga. This rivalry is known as the "Derby do Minho", named after the Minho region in northern Portugal where both cities are located. It's one of the most intense local derbies in Portuguese football, with highly charged matches both on and off the pitch.
5. Best League Finish:
- Vitória’s highest finish in the Primeira Liga was 3rd place in the 2007/08 season. This allowed them to qualify for the UEFA Champions League qualifying rounds, a significant achievement for a club outside the traditional "Big Three" (Benfica, Porto, and Sporting).
