Two of the first women's football teams in Spain, Barcelona and Espanyol first played against each other on 28 March 1971; in the 20th century, derby games were heavily contested and the teams became two of the most successful in Spain.{{cite web |author=Laura Marta |date=11 June 2012 |title=El Español [sic] conquista su sexta Copa de la Reina al ganar 2-1 al Athletic |trans-title=Espanyol wins its sixth Copa de la Reina by beating Athletic 2-1 |url=http://www.abc.es/20120611/deportes-futbol/abci-espanol-copa-reina-201206102056.html |access-date=20 January 2019 |language=es |newspaper=ABC}} Espanyol won the first Catalan league in 1972,{{Cite web|date=2019-04-18|title=Del origen a la Superliga: la historia del Femenino perico|url=https://as.com/futbol/2019/04/18/reportajes/1555602105_792374.html|website=AS.com|language=es}} and Barcelona won it in 1973.{{cite news|url=http://hemeroteca.mundodeportivo.com/preview/1974/02/21/pagina-6/1001474/pdf.html|title=FUTBOL FEMENINO|date=21 February 1974|page=6|newspaper=Mundo Deportivo|language=Spanish}}
In the 21st century, the teams have generally experienced opposite fortunes, first with Espanyol thriving while Barcelona battled relegation, a period lasting until 2012 – the year Espanyol lifted the Copa de la Reina and Barcelona won the league – before Barcelona began its domination and Espanyol struggled.{{cite web |date=2 June 2018 |title=FC Barcelona retain Copa de la Reina title |work=Liga de Fútbol Profesional |url=https://www.laliga.es/en/news/fc-barcelona-retain-copa-de-la-reina-title |access-date=20 January 2019 |publisher=La Liga |last1=España |first1=Madrid }} In January 2021, the derby was held at the Camp Nou to celebrate 50 years since the first game, also played at the stadium.{{cite web |last=P. |first=Dumitru |date=6 January 2021 |title=Barca Femeni smash Espanyol 5-0 as they play first Camp Nou match in 50 years (video) |url=https://tribuna.com/en/news/fcbarcelona-2021-01-06-barca-femeni-smash-espanyol-50-as-they-play-first-camp-nou-match-in-50-years-video/ |accessdate=9 June 2021 |website=tribuna.com |publisher=Tribuna.com}} At the end of this season, Espanyol was relegated and Barcelona won a continental treble, both for the first time.{{cite web |last=Navarro |first=C. |date=7 June 2021 |title=El Espanyol Femenino pide disculpas por el descenso |url=https://www.marca.com/futbol/espanyol/2021/06/07/60be226346163f5e078b4621.html |accessdate=9 June 2021 |website=Marca}}

There have been many players who have appeared for both Barcelona and Espanyol. In the 21st century, significant overlap was caused when Barcelona restructured their women's section in 2006–07. The youth teams were disbanded, with many of the 80 young players taken into Espanyol's stronger youth structure,{{cite news |last=Roura |first=C |date=30 June 2006 |title=Habrá reestructuración en el fútbol femenino |url=https://hemeroteca.mundodeportivo.com/preview/2006/06/30/pagina-29/829841/pdf.html |newspaper=Mundo Deportivo |page=29 |language=es}}{{cite web |last=Redondo |first=Bea |date=2021-12-10 |title='Always wanting more' – how Alexia Putellas became the best in the world |url=https://www.theguardian.com/football/2021/dec/10/always-wanting-more-how-alexia-putellas-became-the-best-in-the-world |access-date=2022-10-17 |website=the Guardian}} and the women's team struggled, causing players to leave, including to Espanyol.{{Cite news |last=Juárez |first=Ma.
