The Saitama derby (さいたまダービー, Saitama dābī) is the local derby in Saitama, Japan, between fierce city rivals Urawa Red Diamonds and RB Omiya Ardija.[1]

History

[edit]

Mitsubishi Heavy Industries SC was founded in 1950 by the employees of Mitsubishi Heavy Industries in Kobe, and Nippon Telegraph and Telephone Kanto SC was founded in 1969 by the employees of Nippon Telegraph and Telephone in Urawa.[2][3] Mitsubishi SC moved to Tokyo in 1958, and was sold to group company Mitsubishi Motors in 1990.[2] Mitsubishi and NTT Kanto first faced each other in 1987 but at the time it was a match between clubs from Tokyo and Saitama and not a derby match, and they had to wait until 1996 for their first Saitama derby. Mitsubishi moved to Urawa that the same place as NTT Kanto in 1992 and went professional as Urawa Red Diamonds, and NTT Kanto moved to Omiya in 1998 and went professional as Omiya Ardija.[2][3] The cities of Urawa and Omiya merged to form the city of Saitama in 2001.[2]

The Saitama derby is known as one of the most intense derby matches in Japan. The stronger rivalry between Urawa and Omiya began with Omiya's promotion to the 2005 J.League Division 1. On the 17 July 2016 derby, the Omiya's ultras displayed insulting banners for Urawa.[4] On the 30 April 2017 derby, the Urawa's ultras kicked the buffer zone fence, destroyed the mesh covering and threw objects onto the pitch after the defeat.[5]
