The Seville derby (Derbi sevillano) is the name of a local city derby located in Seville, Spain contested between Real Betis and Sevilla FC.

Sevilla FC were founded in 1905. This was followed two years later (September 1907) by the city's second club 'Sevilla Balompié'. Following an internal split from Sevilla FC another club was formed, Betis Football Club. 1914 saw the culmination of a merger between Betis Football Club and Sevilla Balompié. With the patronage title, the club became Real Betis Balompié. On 8 October 1915, the first Sevilla-Betis derby took place, ending with a 4–3 Sevilla victory. Sevilla play at the Estadio Ramón Sánchez Pizjuán in the Barrio de Nervión part of the city, while Betis are based in Heliópolis, to the south of the city at the Estadio Benito Villamarín.
