Vila Nova Futebol Clube was founded in 1943, then went through Operário, Araguaia and Fênix before returning to the Vila Nova name in 1955. A first state championship came in 1961, the Brasileiro debut in 1977 with a 55th-place finish, and four state titles in a row from 1977 to 1980. In 1996 the club won the third division without losing a match, and in 1999 it became the first club from Goiás state to take part in an international tournament, the Copa CONMEBOL. The club dropped to Série C in 2006, came back up the following year, dropped again in 2011 and returned to Série B in 2013.
Goiás are Vila Nova's greatest rival, and the argument that fuels it is fanbase size. A common view holds that Vila Nova have the biggest following in Goiânia while Goiás own the biggest in the state, though some Goiás supporters say their club tops Goiânia as well. They met in the 2011 Série B after Goiás went down from Série A in 2010, a first Série B meeting since 1998.
Against Goiás, Vila Nova come out on top more often than not: 6 wins, 2 draws, 2 defeats (all competitions).
