# Tvillingderbyt

Tvillingderbyt (Swedish:; lit. 'the Twin Derby') is a football fixture in Stockholm, Sweden, between cross-town rivals AIK Stockholm and Djurgårdens IF. Both clubs were founded in Stockholm in 1891, AIK was first with Djurgårdens IF following three weeks later, but they started playing football in 1896 (AIK) and 1899 (Djurgårdens IF) respectively.

## History

The Stockholm sports clubs AIK and Djurgårdens IF were both founded in 1891 as general sports clubs. AIK started playing football in 1896, while Djurgårdens IF Fotboll started in 1899. the first football match between them was played on 16 July 1899 at Svea Lifgardes IP and resulted in a 2–1 AIK win.
When Jesper Jansson left AIK for Djurgården before the 1996 season, he was threatened and the door of his apartment was vandalised by Firman Boys, a group connected to AIK. When former AIK player Anders Limpar signed for Djurgården in 2000, his restaurant in Stockholm was vandalised by the same group.
An attendance of 45,367 people watched a 2019 match, breaking an earlier record from 1975. The May 2023 match was interrupted after supporters on the AIK section had thrown flares onto the pitch. Chat messages showed that the action was planned by people on the section in the case of a possible AIK loss.

## Rivalry culture

The fixture between AIK and Djurgården is generally considered to be the most important derby in Sweden. It's a true arch rivalry between Stockholm's two most successful clubs, with AIK having won a total of twelve Swedish championship titles and 8 Svenska Cupen titles, while Djurgården has won twelve national titles and five cup titles.
Both clubs were founded in 1891, just three weeks apart. Therefore, the derby is known as the Tvillingderbyt (lit. 'the Twin Derby'). This fixture is considered the fiercest rivalry in Scandinavia. Since 1891, 231 fixtures have been contested in all competitions with 87 AIK wins and 82 Djurgården wins.
Both clubs have a large number of fans throughout Stockholm. There is somewhat of a geographical divide; Djurgården consider the affluent Östermalm district, the eastern part of Stockholm City Centre, their heartland, while AIK has a strong concentration of fans in the northwest and west part of the urban area, roughly along the blue line of the Metro. Both clubs also maintain a cross-town rivalry with Hammarby IF, whose stronghold is the Södermalm district, the southern part of the city centre.
The AIK–Djurgården rivalry is also found in ice hockey which further strengthens the tension between both sets of fans and makes the rivalry somewhat unique for Swedish sports. They are the only two clubs in Sweden who have won more than one championship in both football and ice hockey – AIK have won twelve football titles and seven ice hockey titles; Djurgården have won twelve in football and 16 in ice hockey.
The clubs have also met in other sports: the bandy teams have played the Saint Stephen's Day bandy match, e.g. in 2006; The first basketball derby played in 2016, a Division 2 match in Solnahallen.
