Campeonato de Portugal
which is now the fourth tier of the Portuguese football league system since a new league (
Liga 3

Algarve FA
regional league in the 2020?2021 season as the league came to an end due to the
COVID-19 pandemic
, and the team with most points (Imortal DC at the time) was promoted to the Campeonato de Portugal. The club was founded in 1920 and they play their home matches at the Estadio Municipal de Albufeira in
Albufeira
. The club's main achievement was winning the
Segunda Divisao
Serie Sul in 1998?99. This was followed by their highest league placing in 1999?2000 when they finished in 15th place in the
Liga de Honra
. Their second season in tier 2 in 2000?01 resulted in relegation and then followed a period of decline, including the withdrawal of a main sponsor, which culminated in them playing in
AF Algarve
2ª Divisao, the sixth tier of Portuguese football, in 2008?09.
