Sarajevo derby
Mostar derby: a football rivalry in Mostar, Bosnia and Herzegovina between HŠK Zrinjski and FK Velež. The Mostar derby is special because of its political and national tensions. Mostar was in war in the near past, and in that war Zrinjski (West Mostar, Croatian part of the city) and Velež (East Mostar, Bosniak part of the city) were on different sides. The wounds of the war are still fresh which might be the reason why this derby is always accompanied by riots and violence.[15]
Bulgaria
Eternal derby of Bulgarian football: This match is known as the so-called "Eternal derby" in Bulgaria. There is fierce hatred between the fans of the clubs and there are often fights. The hostility reached its climax on 19 June 1985 during the Bulgarian Cup final held at Vasil Levski National Stadium when after many disputable referee decisions both teams demonstrated poor sportsmanship which resulted in regular fights between them on the pitch. On 21 June the Central Committee of the Bulgarian Communist Party issued a decree that disbanded both teams. Then called CSKA Septemvriysko zname had to be re-founded as Sredets and then called Levski-Spartak - as Vitosha. Six players (including Hristo Stoichkov and Borislav Mikhailov) were banned for life from playing competitive football, many other players and staff members - for periods from 3 months to 1 year. A year later the decision was abolished and the players continued their sport careers.[16] On occasions up to 1500 police officers have been required to prevent trouble from occurring.[17] Levski's best results are 7–1, 7–2 and 5–0. CSKA's best results are two wins with 5–0 and one with 6–2 in a friendly game.[when?]
Lokomotiv Plovdiv vs Botev Plovdiv: the second biggest rivalry in Bulgaria, pits teams from the second biggest city in Bulgaria, Plovdiv, against each other. Botev Plovdiv have had more success historically, but now their rivals Lokomotiv can gloat that their rivals are in the lower leagues. Nonetheless this rivalry is still hot and with Botev's rise in form, there will be no lack of pressure when these teams line up in the future.

In 2004, a friendly match between the teams was abandoned after fans threw objects including bottles and knives onto the pitch.

Main article: Derbies in the League of Ireland
Bohemians–Shamrock Rovers rivalry: Following the demise of Drumcondra in the 1960s, Bohemian Football Club adopted professionalism. Since then, a rivalry has developed between Bohemians and Shamrock Rovers.[26] While there have been many examples over the years of the notability of the fixture and the rivalry to the supporters of each club, one of the more recent incidents of note is the signing of Tony Grant and James Keddy by Bohs from Rovers, which led to a pig's head being thrown onto the pitch during their first game versus their old club, a gesture aimed at Grant in particular.[27] Matches involving both teams have occasionally been accompanied by instances of hooliganism. Recent incidents have included the vandalism of the monument commemorating the former home of Shamrock Rovers, Glenmalure Park,[28] and two instances of crowd trouble at Dalymount Park in 2000[29] and Richmond Park in 2003,[30] with the latter resulting in the eviction of Rovers from the Inchicore venue.[31] Attendance at the fixture has generally followed the same sliding trend as the rest of the League's fixtures over the last forty years,[32] though attendances have risen since Rovers' move to Tallaght.[33][34]
North-west Derby (Ireland)
Drogheda United vs Dundalk: the Louth Derby is reguarded as one of the biggets fixtures in the league for these two clubs from County Louth in the north-east of the Ireland. The tie has become much more intense since Dundalks promotion to the Premier Division in 2008.
Galway United vs Sligo Rovers: the Connacht derby was traditionally a First Division derby but in recent years the success of both clubs means it is now a regular Premier Division encounter. Both teams regularly beat each other, resulting in an almost exact record for both, however in recent seasons Sligo have come out on top most times. The derby is possibly one of the friendliest in the world, with both clubs maintaining good relations with each other and violence at matches non-existent.
Shamrock Rovers vs Sligo Rovers: rivalry is one that has transcended the usual distance related rivalries within Irish soccer, and has spanned way back to to 1978 FAI Cup Final when referee John Carpenter awarded a controversial penalty to Shamrock Rovers in order for them to win their 21st FAI Cup. This rivalry has been stoked in recent years, no doubt due to the 2010 FAI Cup Final which saw Sligo Rovers beat the Hoops in a penalty shootout, and the rise of both sides in the 2011 Airtricity League season.

Floriana have won 25 Maltese Football League championships and Sliema have won 26. Their rivalry stems from a game in 1910, the first in the then newly-formed League. The match was abandoned after a disputed goal and replayed several weeks later; Floriana won the replay and went on to win the League. The rivalry is known as the Old Firm after the rivalry between Celtic and Rangers in Scotland. It was particularly intense between 1920 and 1940 because the clubs frequently confronted each other in decisive matches.[35]
Capital-Suburb Derby – Valletta vs Floriana
Floriana is a suburb of Malta's capital city of Valletta and generally Floriana fans are taunted about being the "carpet" to the capital city (Valletta). However, the Floriana supporters ('ta' l-Irish') always taunt Valletta about the fact that a few years back, Valletta was full of British and Allied Military frequenting the city. Both clubs hold a lion as their mascot since there is a statue of a lion looking at Valletta in Floriana.[36]
Derby of the South Hibernians F.C. vs Tarxien Rainbows F.C.
This is the newest Premiership derby on the Maltese Islands. Hibernians FC are by far the most successful but Tarxien are building a strong squad for the future. The 1st derby was played in the 1986–87 and resulted in a 1-0 victory for Hibernians, though the next meeting Tarxien caused an upset by winning 1-0. In the nineties they met 4 times, all resulting in a Hibernians victory. During the 2000s Hibernians won 2-0 and 7-2 in 2008–09 and 2-1 in 2009–10 and Tarxien won 1-0, 2-0 and once again 1-0 in their memorable 2009–10 season, their irst which they finished above their rivals.

Gozitan Capital Derby – S.K. Victoria Wanderers F.C. vs Victoria Hotspurs
Despite that geographically Gozo is much smaller than Malta, Gozo is home to the only village (city) derby that takes place on the Maltese Islands. While in Malta there are no villages home to two or more clubs, Victoria, the capital city of Gozo, is home to three clubs, being, Victoria Hotspurs, SK Victoria Wanderers and Oratory Youths. While the latter are considered to be the smallest of the three, matches between the former two are always a heated affair and undoubtedly is the most fiery derby in the Gozitan football league, with the second heated rivalry being the one between Ghajnsielem FC and Nadur Youngsters FC.

A rivalry in the Netherlands is that between AFC Ajax and Feyenoord, known as De Klassieker (The Classic). Both clubs have won the Dutch national championship numerous times and, along with PSV, have dominated the Dutch league since the beginning of professional football in Holland in the 1950s. Ajax has been the more successful of the two, and is renowned for its technical style of play, while Feyenoord has the blue collar appeal closely associated with Rotterdam as a port city.[37] On occasions the rivalry has turned violent. In 1997, fans of the two teams clashed in a field, known as the Battle of Beverwijk. One fan was killed and many were injured. More recently, in 2004 during a pitch invasion Jorge Acuna was put into hospital after being attacked by a fan.[38]

Northern Ireland
Glentoran vs Linfield: this derby revolves around the rivalry between Belfast's 'Big Two' Glentoran and Linfield, the two most successful clubs in the history of Northern Irish football. Although both clubs are traditionally associated with the Unionist/Loyalist tendency of Northern Irish politics (and thus also have separate rivalries with the traditionally Nationalist/Republican Cliftonville) a fierce rivalry has built up between the two clubs due to their dominance of local football. The clubs traditionally face each other on Boxing Day.[39][40] Games between the two sides have frequently been marred by outbreaks of hooliganism.[41][42] and even the appearance of animals at the 1985 Irish Cup final.[43] The 2008 Boxing Day game was marred by some particularly violent scenes, with the game temporarily halted due to missiles being thrown onto the pitch.[44] The incident led to the Irish Football Association suspending the traditional holiday fixture for two years in an attempt to control the violent rivalry.[45] The ban was lifted on appeal in March 2009, although the clubs face a potential fine of £40,000 if there is more crowd trouble.[46] The dominance of the two clubs is demonstrated by the frequency with which they have faced each other in domestic cup finals. As of 2010 the teams have contested the final of the Irish Cup 14 times, the Irish League Cup eight times and the County Antrim Shield 17 times, while they have also faced each other in the finals of the defunct Gold Cup (12 times) and Irish League Floodlit Cup (once).

Eternal derby (Serbia): the Eternal derby (Večiti derbi) also known as Belgrade derby it replaced the pre-World War II rivalry between BSK and SK Jugoslavija.[48] FK Partizan was founded in 1945 as the football section of the central club of the Yugoslav Army.[49] Red Star was founded in 1945 as well but with close ties to the Ministry of Interior at its beginning. These two clubs were dominant in the post-1945 Yugoslav First League with Red Star winning 19 and Partizan 11 Yugoslav Championships. The matches of these two against Hajduk Split and Dinamo Zagreb, the third and fourth respectively in number of titles, was similar in intensity mostly because of the Serbo-Croat rivalry, and the four clubs were known as Velika četvorka (the big 4). After the break-up of SFR Yugoslavia in 1992 the rivalry between Partizan and Red Star continued, having until 2010 only once the national championship not been won by some of the two, with Partizan winning further 11 and Red Star 6 national championships. The rivalry between the two clubs is known to be fierce and violent.[50] Red Star fans are named Delije (Heroes) and FK Partizan fans are named Grobari (Undertakers or Gravediggers). Because of violent actions between hooligans, many people have been hurt in fights. There are several cases of off-stadium deaths in clashes between supporters of these teams, as well as one case of an on-stadium killing, when in 1999 a Grobari member, using a hand-held rocket-launcher, killed a supporter of Red Star by sending a missile from the south stand to the north one, where Delije are traditionally stationed.[51]
