Luís Filipe Ângelo Rodrigues Fernandes, commonly known as Luís Filipe (born June 14, 1979 in Cantanhede), is a Portuguese footballer for Vitória de Guimarães. He plays as a defender or a midfielder, always on the right side. Not blessed with many technical skills or speed, he compensates with hustle.

Luís Filipe started playing professional football as a right-winger with Académica de Coimbra, and had a small abroad stint with La Liga's Atlético Madrid, spent with their B team. Unsettled, he moved to Sporting de Braga, blossoming as a first-level player.

His development led to a 2001 transfer to Sporting Clube de Portugal. Opportunities were scarce, and he subsequently reconverted to right-back, in the molds of international Miguel, upon his loan with União de Leiria. In 2004-05 he represented C.S. Marítimo and subsequently returned to Braga.

In the beginning of August 2007, Filipe signed a four-year deal with Sport Lisboa e Benfica, [ [http://www.uefa.com/competitions/ucl/news/kind=1/newsid=566784.html Benfica brings in Braga fullback] ] with also right-back João Pereira going the other way.

After one unsuccessful year in Lisbon, he was deemed surplus to requirements by new boss Quique Sánchez Flores, moving alongside Nuno Assis to UEFA Champions League challenger Vitória Sport Clube, in Guimarães. Benfica retained the option to re-buy at the end of the season.
