One of the crucial aspects of the Montenegrin Derby are the supporters. The supporters of Budućnost are named Varvari (Barbarians) while the supporters of Sutjeska are Vojvode (The Dukes). Rivalry of ultras from Podgorica and Nikšić is presented on the football matches since their foundation. During recent history, there is strong ultras rivalry at the basketball matches, too.

Varvari Podgorica

Buducnost fans are known as Varvari (Barbarians), a group founded in 1987.[7] The group's traditional colours are blue and white, which are also the colours of all the Budućnost sports clubs. For FK Budućnost Podgorica home games, Varvari occupy the northern stand (Sjever) of the Podgorica city stadium. They also have a reserved stand at the Morača Sports Center, as supporters of KK Buducnost basketball club.[8]

Vojvode Nikšić

"The Dukes" (Vojvode) is the popular name for the most ardent Sutjeska supporters. They have been established as in 1988 in Nikšić and today constitute one of the most numerous groups of supporters in Montenegro.[9] Their place is in the eastern stand, and they traditionally follow all the matches of all sports that compete under the Sutjeska name, both home and away matches.[10]
