The Cairo Derby (Arabic: ديربي القاهرة) is a rivalry between Egyptian football clubs Zamalek and Al Ahly, arguably the two most successful clubs in Egypt and Africa. Al Ahly and Zamalek were named by the CAF as the 1st and 2nd African clubs of the 20th century respectively.
Both teams are located in Greater Cairo and their matches are considered the highlight of the football season with a live broadcast to most of the Middle Eastern and North African countries since the 1970s. Usually the derby is played twice each season with 2 matches in the Egyptian Premier League, but it is not uncommon to find the teams meeting each other in the Egypt Cup, especially in the final, and in Africa's most prestigious club competition, the CAF Champions League.

Ever since their creation, both clubs have been the top clubs in the Egyptian Premier League, the country's top-flight football league. Also, it was chosen one of the five of the toughest derbies in the world according by the BBC.
On 9 February 1917, the first match between Zamalek and Al Ahly took place on Zamalek Stadium, it ended with Al Ahly winning Zamalek by a score of 1–0, goal scored by Abdel Hamid Moharram. They met again 21 days later, on 2 March 1917, by this time on Al Ahly Stadium, and Zamalek won Al Ahly by a score of 1–0, goal scored by Ali El-Hassani.[1]
In the first half of the 20th century.[2] Zamalek and Al Ahly won almost the same amount of trophies in the Cairo League, with Al Ahly winning 15 titles and Zamalek winning 14 titles. In the newly launched Egyptian Premier League in 1948, Al Ahly won their first league title in the 1948–49 season and won 42 league titles after that. Zamalek managed to win the league 14 times.

On 5 January 1923, Zamalek met Al Ahly in a friendly contest, the match ended by a victory for Zamalek by a score of 5–0, goals scored by Ali Riadh, Hussein Hegazi and Sadek Fahmy (three goals), Fahmy was the first player to score a hat-trick in the history of the derby, but in a friendly match.[3] In the Sultan Hussein Cup, Zamalek and Al Ahly had never met in the final, however, they played six matches. The first match was in the 1924 Sultan Hussein Cup's semifinal on 17 March 1924, the match finished in a 1–1 draw, in the rematch on 21 March, Zamalek won 2–0 and advanced to the final. One of the unforgettable matches in the history of the Sultan Hussein Cup was the 1930 derby, despite that the two belligerents failed to win this season's title, the match was of a high level of intensity and had much media attention. Zamalek faced Al Ahly in a purely Egyptian contest, in which Zamalek knocked Al Ahly out of the competition, after defeating them with a score of 3–1 in the semi-finals. Zamalek's goals were scored by Mohamed Latif and Mostafa Taha (two goals), while Al Ahly's goal was scored by Mahmoud Mokhtar El Tetsh.[4]

The largest winning margin in this derby was 6–0 for Zamalek, which has been achieved 2 times.[5][6] The first time was the 1942 Cairo Derby on January 2, 1942 in the 1941–42 Cairo League,[7] and the second time was on June 2, 1944, when Zamalek was known as Farouk back then, at the 1944 Egypt Cup Final.[8][9]

The longest unbeaten streak in the history of the derby was eleven years, Al Ahly didn't win Zamalek in an official match from 20 April 1962 to 30 March 1973. However, Al Ahly has the longest winning streaks, especially in the league.
Fans of both clubs can be violent when in anger, such as a match in the 1971–1972 season, which had crowd violence and caused the rest of the season to be called off.[11] Numerous fights, injuries, and deaths have been reported before matters became more controlled due to Egypt's authoritarian regime. Yet many fights and riots still occur after derby matches between both sets of fans, leading the government to post even higher numbers of Central Security Forces troops in the stadium during the derby. The number of fights have increased with the increasing popularity of the "ultras" movement.[12]

Non-Egyptian referees are often flown in to officiate the derby to ensure impartiality.[14] In 2008 , World Soccer Magazine selected the Cairo Derby as the 10th most fierce derby in the world.[15] Besides the estimated 50 million domestic TV audience, the game is huge all over North Africa, the Middle East and the entire world.[16] On 24 February 2020, Zamalek forfeited a league match against Al Ahly, a few days after their match at the 2019–20 Egyptian Super Cup.[17]
