The rivalry has had some tense moments including when Harry Redknapp ditched Pompey to manage Southampton only to see The Saints get relegated the following season much to the joy of their rivals. Southampton is very much the more prominent side in recent memory due to their constant presence in the Premier League but Portsmouth are slowly recovering from their financial strife and could soon be reigniting the passionate clash in the not too distant future. These teams probably aren’t each other’s biggest rivals. But there’s no denying that there is a ton of history here. Both teams have been around since the 1880s, so they are longtime National League foes. It’s also a rather short trip from Cincinnati to Pittsburgh, not to mention the existing rivalry between the Bengals and Steelers on the football field. It’s weird that with Milwaukee and Chicago so close geographically that this wasn’t much of a rivalry until the Brewers moved to the National League in 1998. But it’s taken off in a big way since then and become one of the biggest MLB rivalries. It’s not exactly cordial between those fans either. Over the years, there have been more than a few times that the Cubs and Brewers have battled for supremacy in the NL Central, adding to this short-lived but intense rivalry. In 2018, things went to the next level when they needed to play a tie-breaker game against one another after the season, ensuring that this rivalry will only heat up moving forward. 6.
