Clássico dos Clássicos (English: the Derby of the Derbies) is a football derby between two teams of the Brazilian city of Recife: Clube Náutico Capibaribe and Sport Club do Recife.

In fact, Sport was created from a dissidence between Náutico members. The members that left Náutico decided to create an antagonical club.

The last Clássico dos Clássicos was 0-2, Sport's victory in the Aflitos, when the teams were playing for the Campeonato Brasileiro 2008. The others derbies in the year were 0-0 in the Ilha do Retiro, and 0-1, a Sport's victory in the Aflitos stadium, Náutico's home. Sport had already won that championship.
