If you want to see derbies with lots of red cards, watch Swindon Town! The Robins are involved in both of the top 2 games with the most red cards per match! The A420 Derby against Reading has averaged 0.67 reds per match, with their games against in the M4 Derby against Oxford averaging 0.60 - they're the only two matches we have with more than 0.5 reds per match, and the odds of a red card are actually almost 50% more than any other derby!
It should be noted that card stats for most derbies only go back to the year 2000 and red cards only got introduced into football in the 1960s.
