The Derby of Thessaloniki (Greek: Ντέρμπι Θεσσαλονίκης) is a football local rivalry between Aris and PAOK, both of which are based in Thessaloniki, Macedonia, Greece. Aris play their home games at the Kleanthis Vikelidis Stadium in Charilaou district of eastern Thessaloniki, while PAOK are based at the Toumba Stadium in the neighbouring Toumba district. The two stadiums are 1.54 km apart.

## History

[edit]

### Social rivalry

[edit]

The rivalry between these two Thessalonian clubs can be traced back to the interwar period. Upper class local Greeks supported Aris and Greek refugees supported PAOK. These refugees were mostly working class migrants from Asia Minor and Constantinople. They settled in the region of Macedonia after the population exchange between Greece and Turkey in 1923. The antagonism between those social groups has been expressed in many ways and one of them was football.

### Football rivalry

[edit]

Aris were founded in 1914 and PAOK in 1926. On 12 June 1927, the first derby of Thessaloniki took place, ending with a 2–1 PAOK victory.[1] Up to 1959, the two teams were fighting for the Macedonia Football Clubs Association (EPSM) local championship title and they also met some times in the final stage of the Panhellenic Championship. In 1959, the Alpha Ethniki \- the precursor of the current Super League \- was set up as a national round-robin tournament. Aris vs PAOK rivalry has continued to grow more and more heated over the years as the two clubs battle for supremacy in Northern Greece.[2][3][4][5]
