The history of the two clubs has been linked since their origins, since Sport was founded by Guilherme de Aquino after Náutico directors refused his offer to introduce a football department to the club, which was originally founded as a rowing club. Náutico's football team first match was against Sport, in which Timbu won 3–1.
The fixture received its current name of "Clássico dos Clássicos" in an advertisement in "Jornal Pequeno" on August 18, 1945.
The rivalry between the two clubs is intense and is reflected in part by the opposing teams' colors: the principal colors of Clube Náutico Capibaribe are red and white; those of Sport Club do Recife are red and black. The competitiveness has sometimes given rise to conflicts between the supporters of the teams, especially among organized members of the teams' fan clubs. Security has been a significant concern for the local authorities, involving large numbers of police and firefighters.
