In the last match, they won in a home match against Benfica II, by (2‑1).

The group from Maranhão received and beat Benfica B, by 2-1, in a game of the fourth round of the II League. But, before we talk about the incidences of the match, it is important to note that due to some cases of Covid-19 recorded in the Mafra team, Benfica made themselves available to postpone the match challenge, but the League, following the DGS protocol, did not accepted the request of the two teams. Even with some limitations, Mafra went into the game and went on to lose after Morato's early goal. The home team reacted well to the goal conceded and reached equality on the scoreboard one minute before the break, through Andrezinho. Already during injury time, when nothing predicted, Stevy Okitokandjo's goalkeeper consumed the turnaround thanks to a penalty. With this result, Mafra remains 100% victorious and is an outstanding leader in the competition.
Filipe Cândido's team should play in the usual tactical design, the 3-5-2, privileging the supported game. Abel Camará and Stevy Okitokandjo are likely to be the main faces of the Mafra attack. In turn, the central corridor should be formed by Bruno Silva, Rodrigo Martins, Kaká, Andrezinho and Nuno Campos. For this game, the helmsman of the visiting team has all the players at his disposal.

Confirmed Lineup: João Godinho, Tomás Caldas Januário Carvalho Domingos, Bruno Silva, Miguel Lourenço, Nuno Campos, Guilherme, Káká, Cuca, Camará, Andrezinho, Stevy Okitokandjo.
Coach: J. Rebelo Fernandes.
