The Steel City derby, or the Sheffield derby is a local derby between Sheffield United and Sheffield Wednesday, the two professional football league teams in the city of Sheffield, England.
As of 22 February 2026, the teams have met 148 times in competitive games, with United winning 53 and Wednesday 48.
The derby returned for the 2024/25 and 2025/26 seasons following United's relegation from the Premier League, however Wednesday's relegation from The Championship in 2025/26 means that the date of the next meeting between the sides is unclear.
United currently hold an eight game unbeaten run in the fixture, including four wins in the last four derby matches.
