The fixture between football clubs IFK Göteborg and Örgryte IS is a local derby in Gothenburg, Sweden and a fierce rivalry. The derby does not have a unique name and is commonly known by the collective term Göteborgsderby (transl.Gothenburg derby) which is also used for other fixtures between Gothenburg clubs.

Due to the long history of both clubs, no other rivals in Swedish football have played each other more times (including friendly matches), and the record attendance for Swedish club football was set at a derby in 1959.[1]

Background

[edit]

Örgryte IS is the oldest club in Sweden, founded in 1887, and played the first Swedish football match by association rules in 1892. They dominated Swedish football during the 1890s and 1900s, winning 10 of their 14 Swedish championships during that era. IFK Göteborg was founded in 1904 and won its first competitive match against Örgryte in 1910. Since then, IFK have been the dominant team and has won 18 Swedish championships as well as two UEFA Cup titles.[2]
