Hajduk Split v Dinamo Zagreb
Two biggest clubs in Croatia, and despite not winning the league title for 10 years (sad story in Croatian football read here more), the oldest firm in Europe Torcida Split never gave up on their club. Their derby games are always something special, and attention on the derby is in a whole country, days before the first kick-off. There are always some tales after the games, again, read link mention above, but on the stands is always hot, especially before the boycott of Dinamo Zagreb fans (due to club’s bad policy and the club real boss). Really a game not to miss, especially the one in Split, where the fans really know how to make it special.
Don’t forget Serbia and the biggest, Eternal derby between Crvena Zvezda and Partizan. Two teams from the same city, two groups Delije and Grobari from Belgrade.
