What Is a Derby in the Premier League?

A derby is when two teams from the same city or nearby area play each other. These matches are always exciting and often very tense. For example, when Manchester United plays Manchester City, fans from all over the world watch.

There is even one special derby—called the M23 Derby—between Crystal Palace and Brighton & Hove Albion. These teams aren’t in the same city, but they are old rivals from the 1970s and are connected by the M23 motorway.
