The I-4 Derby is a preseason series that exists between the Tampa Bay Rowdies of the North American Soccer League and Orlando City of USL Pro. The name of the rivalry is named after Interstate 4, the primary highway that connects Greater Orlando to the Tampa Bay Area.
The home-and-home series began in March 2013, when City hosted the Rowdies, and won 3–2. The return leg in Tampa was won by City as well, by the same 3–2 scoreline.
