Peep peep! Penalty!
If it's the drama of a penalty you're after, don't miss derbies featuring teams on the south coast! The M23 Derby between Brighton and Palace and the South Coast Derby between Portsmouth and Southampton produce far more than any of the other matches we have data on.
It should be noted that penalty data for most derbies only go back to the year 2000 and only include penalties that have been scored.
