Vitória Sport Clube, commonly known as Vitória de Guimarães or just Vitória, is a Portuguese professional football club based in Guimarães that competes in the Primeira Liga, the top flight of Portuguese football, at the Estádio D. Afonso Henriques. The club also stands out on the national and international scene in sports such as athletics, volleyball, basketball, handball, water polo, swimming, jiu-jitsu, taekwondo and kickboxing, among others.
It is currently the club with the fourth highest number of seasons at the top level of Portuguese football, totalling 81, and also the club with the fourth highest number of members, around 39,000. It also has the fourth best average stadium attendance in Portugal, well ahead of its direct rivals.
Vitória Guimarães have finished third in the Primeira Liga on four occasions, most recently in 2007–08. They have won one Taça de Portugal in 2012–13, one Taça da Liga in 2025–26 and one Supertaça Cândido de Oliveira in 1988, while also being runners-up of the former on six occasions. These three different achievements mean that Vitória SC is now the fourth Portuguese club to have won all the national cups, something only matched by the big three.
The club have competed regularly in European competitions, where their best finish was the quarter-finals of the 1986–87 UEFA Cup.
Vitória SC have a long-standing rivalry with nearby club SC Braga, with whom they contest the Derby do Minho. In addition to this age-old rivalry, Vitória has another major dispute with Boavista from the city of Porto.
