Here you can read about the games that are regarded as derbies in Macedonia. We have included only those who share historical significance and tradition in the Macedonian football.

Derby of Macedonia:
Vardar vs. Pelister (The rivalry between these two dates back to the 1990/91 season when during a match in the Yugoslav Second League an incident occurred. Since then, this clash is regarded as the biggest Macedonian derby, a clash of a team from the capital city of Skopje against one from the city of Bitola.)

City derbies:
–    Derby of Skopje: Rabotnichki vs. Vardar (It’s one of the oldest known derbies in Macedonia. These two first met in 1951 in the Yugoslav Second League with Rabotnichki winning 2:1. A comedy named “2:1” was written by writer Vasil Iljoski to memorize the event. Both teams share the same stadium, the National Arena Todor Proeski.)
–    Derby of Tetovo: Teteks vs. Shkëndija (The battle for the third largest city in Macedonia is ethnically divided. With Teteks’ fans being ethnic Macedonians and those of Shkëndija ethnic Albanians, it’s clear why this is a big derby.)
–    Derby of Kichevo: Napredok vs. Vlazrimi
–    Derby of Prilep: Pobeda vs. 11 Oktomvri (Defunct: both clubs ceased to exist)
–    Derby of Strumica: Belasica vs. Brera Strumica
There are many other clubs that are from a same town, but since they have met only few times, we can’t really call those games real derbies.

–    Brotherhood derby: Teteks vs. Vardar (It’s a derby of two teams with same ideology, actually more of their fans who regard themselves as Macedonian patriots and Christian Orthodox. The Ultras groups Komiti of Vardar and Vojvodi of Teteks are officially twinned.)
–    Lake derby: Ohrid vs. Karaorman (The two clubs are located in the two cities that lie on the coast of the Ohrid Lake, Ohrid and Struga. From there comes the name of the derby.)
