I'm not sure if these two dynamics are more foils than they are rivalries and I'm certain Madoka was intended to be Homura's foil anyway. All of the characters were on opposing sides but I never really got any rivalry vibes from either of them. Then again someone pointed out to me the conflict between Kariya Matou and Tokiomi Tohsaka which I failed to notice before Fate/Zero II aired so maybe my idea of a rivalry is different or just outdated but I digress.
Anyway, I'm going to second Yang Wenli and Reinhard von Lohengramm from Legend of the Galactic Heroes. They only meet face-to-face once in the entire series but you knew how much they acknowledged each other on the battlefield. What really surprised me, really, was how much of an idealist Reinhard was and how cynical Yang was.
