Marco Filipe Lopes Paixão (born 19 September 1984) is a Portuguese professional footballer who plays for Turkish club Altay S.K. as a forward.
His twin brother Flávio is also a footballer, Marco being the older by five minutes.
Born in Sesimbra, Paixão spent his early career in Portugal and Spain, playing with lowly teams in both countries – his hometown's G.D. Sesimbra, FC Porto B, CD Guijuelo, Logroñés CF and Cultural y Deportiva Leonesa.
In 2007–08, he suffered relegation from Segunda División B with Logroñés, and in the following season scored 13 goals for Leonesa.
Paixão's first taste of professional football came in 2009 as he signed for Scottish Premier League club Hamilton Academical on 6 August, alongside twin brother Flávio. He made his league debut late in the month, against Aberdeen.
On 11 April 2011, it was announced that Paixão would leave at the end of the campaign. However, just three days later, he was released from his contract with immediate effect, alongside his sibling; he appeared in 56 official matches for the Accies, scoring six goals.
