 Tense matches and even incidents were also noted over time in the matches against Petrolul Ploiești and even if between the two clubs is not a proper rivalry, the supporters are not very friendly with each other.An interesting and unusual rivalry was also born between 2010 and 2015, when on the occasion of six matches, Chindia played against FCM Târgoviște, the first club of the city, moved to Șotânga at that time.This encounter named as "Târgoviște Derby" had some similarities with derbies such as AFC Wimbledon vs MK Dons, ASU Politehnica Timișoara vs ACS Poli Timișoara or CS Universitatea Craiova vs FC U Craiova 1948.
