The Montenegrin derby (Montenegrin: Crnogorski derbi) is the main football match in Montenegro, between the teams from the two biggest Montenegrin cities. Rivals are FK Budućnost from Podgorica and FK Sutjeska from Nikšić, two most popular sports societies in Montenegro. The rivalry is present in football and basketball.
Two clubs played their derbies in Montenegrin Championship, First League of SFR Yugoslavia, FR Yugoslavia and Serbia and Montenegro, and today, four times on one season, in Montenegrin First League.

History

FK Budućnost is founded at 1925, and FK Sutjeska at 1927. So, the two teams played their first matches before the Second World War. First matches in official competitions, Budućnost and Sutjeska played in the Montenegrin Football Championship (1922-1940). The first official game was played on 9 October 1932 in Nikšić, and Budućnost won 2–1. During the period before the Second World War, two teams played four official games - FK Budućnost under the name RSK Budućnost and FK Sutjeska under the name SK Hercegovac.
The first derby after the War was held in April 1946, when the two clubs played matches in the Montenegrin Republic League, for promotion to the inaugural season of the Yugoslav First League. Until now, there were 107 official games between Budućnost and Sutjeska.
As a match of main and strongest clubs from two biggest Montenegrin cities, the derby became popular among the citizens from the early history. Some of the highest attendances in Montenegrin football were recorded at the games of Montenegrin Derby. From the 1980s, both clubs have organised supporters groups, which gave to a Montenegrin Derby new and often a violent dimension.[2] [3] [4] [5]

Supporters

One of the crucial aspects of the Montenegrin Derby are the supporters. The supporters of Budućnost are named Varvari (Barbarians) while the supporters of Sutjeska are Vojvode (The Dukes). Rivalry of ultras from Podgorica and Nikšić is presented on the football matches since their foundation. During recent history, there is strong ultras rivalry at the basketball matches, too.

Varvari Podgorica

Buducnost fans are known as Varvari (Barbarians), a group founded in 1987.[6] The group's traditional colours are blue and white, which are also the colours of all the Budućnost sports clubs. For FK Budućnost Podgorica home games, Varvari occupy the northern stand (Sjever) of the Podgorica city stadium. They also have a reserved stand at the Morača Sports Center, as supporters of KK Buducnost basketball club.[7]

Vojvode Nikšić

"The Dukes" (Vojvode) is the popular name for the most ardent Sutjeska supporters. They have been established as in 1988 in Nikšić and today constitute one of the most numerous groups of supporters in Montenegro.[8] Their place is in the eastern stand, and they traditionally follow all the matches of all sports that compete under the Sutjeska name, both home and away matches.[9]
