10. Partizan-Red Star

That's a really interesting one... I read recently about how the Red Star supporters clubs formed the backbone of their militia in the 90's, and that rivalry took the "war by football proxy" metaphor a lot further than usual.
I don't remember enough about it to elaborate, but I thought that deserved a mention.

Speaking of Red Star, I'd throw Red Star - Dinamo Zagreb in there, even though they're no longer in the same league. Not exactly a derby, but they hate each other. A lot.

Agreed that Partizan-Red Star needs to be moved up. And Juve-Fiorentina should be lower (tmc is right, Juve fans don't see this one has huge as Fiorentina fans). Would've expected to see the Juve-Inter somewhere in the top 25 though. Still its hard to argue with the top 5 at least, if not the specific order.
