Aston Villa F.C.–West Bromwich Albion F.C. rivalry

Aston Villa and West Bromwich Albion are two English football clubs from the West Midlands who share a local rivalry. The matches between them are known as West Midlands derbies, though this term may also be used for a number of other rivalries within the region.
Their stadiums, Villa Park and The Hawthorns respectively, are four miles away from each other. Both clubs have bigger rivals—Birmingham City for the former in the Second City derby, and Wolverhampton Wanderers for the latter in the Black Country derby. A 2010 article in The Daily Telegraph ranked the rivalry between Aston Villa and West Bromwich Albion as the third most fierce in the region, behind the two aforementioned derbies.
