Historically the rivalry between KF Tirana and Partizani Tirana football clubs, the two biggest in Tirana the capital of Albania, has been followed by many football fans and much spectacle either on the pitch, or on stands between Tirona Fanatics and Guerrils. Matches between these two teams have a long history and have almost always made the first page news in the country. Between years 2008-13, following Partizani's relegation, and also during 2017-18 season with Tirana's relegation to a lower division, the derby faded away for a while until its return during the 2018–19 season.

KF Partizani have a historical advantage of 25 wins in the League.[1] However, Tirana has a superior record overall in the last 30 seasons and lead in the overall cup statistics with two more ties won.

Supporters of both teams are mainly local people of the city, however traditionally KF Tirana is considered a middle and upper class club supported by the downtown, with right-wing political tendencies, whereas Partizani is traditionally associated with the working class support from the suburbs, with left-wing political tendencies. Both teams have a great deal of supporters from other cities of Albania, as well as worldwide.
