José Júlio de Carvalho Peyroteo Martins Couceiro (born 4 October 1962) is a Portuguese football manager. He manages Vitória de Setúbal.
As a manager, Couceiro's career is marked with the relegation of Alverca in the 2003–04 season. He bounced back with a good run with Vitória de Setúbal, and won the best Portuguese coach prize. He then signed for FC Porto on 1 February 2005, going on to Belenenses during the 2005–06 season. In August 2006, he was appointed manager of the Portuguese under-21 team, reaching positive results in the UEFA Championships.
He was then appointed the head coach of FBK Kaunas, the Lithuanian A Lyga club controlled by Vladimir Romanov, in July 2008. On 5 August 2008, Kaunas, playing in a UEFA Champions League play-off match, beat 2007 UEFA Cup finalists Rangers of Scotland 2–1 on aggregate to qualify for the third round for the first time in their history. He became head coach of the Lithuanian national team on 14 August 2008. In his first competitive match as manager, Lithuania defeated Romania 3–0 in Cluj-Napoca for a 2010 FIFA World Cup qualifier. After that, they beat Austria 2–0 at home, and the Faroe Islands 1–0. They did not, however, qualify for the World Cup tournament in South Africa.
