Stadium

Náutico's stadium is the Estádio Eládio de Barros Carvalho, popularly known as the Estádio dos Aflitos, inaugurated on June 25, 1939. It was the first stadium in Pernambuco state, with a maximum capacity of 19,800 people. The stadium is named after Eládio de Barros Carvalho, who had fourteen spells as Naútico's president. Aflitos is so nicknamed because it is located in the Nossa Senhora dos Aflitos neighborhood. *First game (25/06/1939): Naútico 5–2 Sport Recife *First goal (25/06/1939): Wilson (Náutico) *Largest attendance (21/07/1968): Náutico 1–0 Sport Recife (31,061 spectators) *Biggest score (01/07/1945): Náutico 21–3 Flamengo of Pernambuco *Capacity: 19,800 seated spectators Starting in July 2013 Náutico will be playing their home matches in

Rivalry

'' ("The Derby of the Derbies", in Portuguese). It is one of the oldest derbies in Brazilian football (Third - 1909).
