Might be worth leaving soccer out... the list is almost endless...any town/city with more than one team for starters...
Hibs v Hearts
Man Utd v City
Sheff Wed v Utd
In 6 Nations Rugby Union
Everybody v Wales (never found anyone who knows why but we all hate the shaggers
it's traditional...probably a class thing)
Everybody v England (it's a history thing Agincourt, Highland clearances, the whole Ireland thing etc etc etc)
