CHAVES, Portugal (Interstat) — GD Chaves opened its Segunda Liga season with a 2-0 victory over Farense on Sunday, Feb. 22, 2026, at Estádio Municipal Eng. Manuel Branco Teixeira. The home side controlled the match, with Roberto scoring in the 16th minute and Reinaldo adding a second just before halftime in the 49th. The win defied the Interstat game simulator, which had projected a 1-1 draw, though its ELO system gave Chaves a 57.1% probability to win. Farense was shut out and begins its campaign with a loss. The result gives Chaves an early three points in the Portuguese second division.
