List of association football rivalries in the United Kingdom

The Old Firm derby between Celtic and Rangers is widely considered the greatest in British sports.^[1]^[2]^[3]^[4]^[5] This image showing the separation of the two fanbases on derby day.

This is a list of association football rivalries in the UK.

Football derby matches in the United Kingdom are often heated affairs, and violence is not uncommon.^[6]^[7] However, the matches and the rivalries they encompass are frequently listed among the best in the sport.^[8]^[9] A 2008 report showed that West Bromwich Albion vs Wolverhampton Wanderers was the number one rivalry in English football.^[10] While Old Firm derby matches between Scottish clubs Rangers and Celtic are known to go beyond the sport with its "enormous quantity of references to wider cultural and political issues".^[11] The first football derby played was between Hallam F.C. and Sheffield F.C. in December 1860.^[12]
