The Double-headed eagles derby () is a football derby between AEK Athens and PAOK. Both teams have the same roots, being refugees from Constantinople (AEK in Nea Filadelfeia, a suburban town in the Athens agglomeration, and PAOK in Thessaloniki), after the Greco-Turkish War, the Asia Minor Catastrophe and the population exchange. Both teams use the same emblem (Double-headed eagle), to reminisce the Byzantine Empire, but in different colors (black and yellow for AEK, black and white for PAOK). The first match between the two teams took place in Leoforos Alexandras Stadium in Athens during the final phase of the 1930–31 Panhellenic Championship.

History Since their establishment, the relations between the two clubs were good, as was depicted in the 1939 Cup final, when the players of both clubs entered the pitch hugged. On 2 September 1959, PAOK invited AEK for a friendly match to celebrate the inauguration of the Toumba Stadium. Twenty years later, the president of AEK, Loukas Barlos invited PAOK at Nea Filadelfeia for the testimonial match of their long-serving captain, Mimis Papaioannou.

The rivalry used to remain on-pitch for several years. However, since the 2017 Cup final and the controversial league derby on 11 March 2018, there is an ongoing, intense and overall exaggeration of the rivalry.
