Malaysian el Clasico[2] is the name given to football matches that involves Pahang FC and Johor Darul Ta'zim F.C. (JDT). The derby started since the rebranding of JDT and were first billed by former Pahang striker, Dickson Nwakaeme.[3] Although it's named as "Malaysian el Clasico", but this intense rivalry are more to seasonal rivalry as it was only started from 2013 thus it can't match the term used by other "el Classicos" by other clubs elsewhere around the globe which are usually had long standing rivalries and histories.
The rivalry between these two clubs comes about as both clubs were backed by royals from their own respective state. Pahang royals were viewed as conservative and untouchable from Football Association of Malaysia whilst Johor Darul Ta'zim F.C. were seen as rebellious.

Since the re branded, JDT bought key players of the national teams from the other clubs which transform it into a major force in Malaysian football scene. Among the others clubs then, only Pahang that have the capacities to challenge a serious challenge towards JDT.[6] Football Association of Malaysia also have been accused of favoring Pahang compare to JDT in terms of treatment due to the revolution brought by Tunku Ismail.[7]
The derby started to become heated during 2013 Malaysia FA Cup second leg semi-final match between both team where the match were delayed due to overcrowd in the stadium. The visiting fans were also been thrown with stone by the home crowd.[8][9] The bus carrying supporters during their way back were also hurled with stones.[10] During the 2015 Malaysia Charity Shield match, the JDT supporters unveiled a tifo depicting a dog with Pahang colors on it.[11][12]The teams also involved in a tussle for players during 2015 transfer market when Gary Steven Robbat signed for both teams before ultimately transfer to JDT.[13]
