The Bavarian derby

Bayern Munich vs. Nürnberg is considered the biggest game in Bavaria, between the two most successful and popular clubs in the state. It is commonly called the Bavarian derby. In German media it is mostly called the Fränkisch-Bayerisches Derby, as Nuremberg fans consider themselves and their club as non-Bavarian.
The games between the two clubs since the end of the Second World War:

The Franconian derby

1. FC Nürnberg vs. Greuther Fürth is not a true city derby by name, because in 1922 Fürth's population opted against their city council's proposal for a merger with Nuremberg. The game is the oldest top-level derby in Bavaria and the most-played football contest in Germany with over 264 games between the two sides. It is commonly called the Franconian derby.

1. FC Nürnberg versus SpVgg Greuther Fürth

After the merger of SpVgg Fürth and TSV Vestenbergsgreuth, the new club adopted a somewhat combined name but the game against 1. FC Nürnberg is still considered a continuation of the old derby.

1. FC Nürnberg II versus SpVgg Greuther Fürth II

With both reserve sides achieving Bayernliga qualification in 2001 for the first time, the "little" Franconian derby will be played at this level for the first time in the 2001–02 season:

The games between the two clubs since the end of the Second World War:

The Augsburg derby

By far the biggest derby in the city of Augsburg was the BCA versus Schwaben game.

Schwaben and BCA merged in 1969 to form FC Augsburg but Schwaben soon established itself as an independent club again and the derbies between them and FCA are seen as a continuation of the games versus BCA. These new derbies however have taken place in the Oberliga Bayern only.

The Fürth derby

This derby has little historic background and was only played on higher level for one season. Usually, the two clubs played in tiers far apart, only from 1988 to 1991 did both clubs previously meet in the Landesliga Bayern-Mitte.

The other Munich derbies

Munich, being the Bavarian capital, always had many clubs at Oberliga level and above and therefore derbies in this city were plentiful.

FC Bayern Munich versus FC Bayern Munich II

A very unusual derby was played in the DFB-Pokal in 1976, when Bayern Munich's first team met its reserve side:

FC Bayern Munich versus SpVgg Unterhaching

Unterhaching, being a relatively new club in professional football, did not play the FC Bayern until very recently.

The Würzburg derby

The Würzburg derby between FV Würzburg 04 and Würzburger Kickers, first played in 1908, was held as high as the 2. Bundesliga but came temporarily to a halt when the FV folded in 1981. The club reformed and the derby has since been played mostly on Landesliga Bayern-Nord level but also in the Bayernliga in recent years.
