Clássico Majestoso (English: Majestic Derby) is the name given to the football rivalry between Corinthians and São Paulo FC, two of the biggest clubs of São Paulo and Brazilian football. The name was first used by Gazeta Esportiva newspaper's Thomaz Mazzoni. It is considered one of the biggest derbies of Brazil.
The Majestoso is the only Brazilian derby that has taken place in finals at state, interstate, national and international level competitions alike; individually, it is the only Brazilian derby to have taken place at Recopa Sudamericana (in 2013). It is also the state-rivalry with most supporters involved in Brazil, as Corinthians and São Paulo have the second and third largest fanbases of Brazil, respectively. Alongside Santos and Palmeiras, Corinthians and São Paulo are two of São Paulo's four major football teams.
