The Prague Derby () or Derby of the Prague S () is a football match between local Prague rivals SK Slavia Prague and AC Sparta Prague. The two clubs are considered to be the most successful in Czech football, having won league and cup titles on numerous occasions. The two were both founded in the late 19th century, Slavia one year before their rivals in 1892, though Slavia did not play football until four years later. The first match between the teams was played on 29 March 1896, with the game finishing 0–0. The two clubs are the most successful and famous in the country and their dominance has led the derby to be referred to in a similar way as the Scottish Old Firm.
The rivalry between the Prague "S" teams is significant, as Sparta grew out of a working-class background and Slavia from a student one; the former has a reputation for being supported primarily by workers, while the latter is said to be backed by high-ranking officials and the social elite—though in reality, this is not the case. A 2026 geographical mobility study revealed that local Prague residents account for less than 40% of the home crowd for AC Sparta Prague matches, compared to approximately 45.5% for SK Slavia Prague, with the remainder of match attendees commuting from other regions of the Czech Republic.
The 250th meeting of the clubs took place in December 2000. The biggest margin of victory in the fixture is Slavia's 9–1 win in 1907. Sparta's widest margin of victory came in an 8–1 win in 1952. As of 5 December 2021 the fixture has been played 303 times. Sparta have won 136 of those matches, 72 ended as a draw and Slavia have won 95.
