It was Athens against Persia. Athens helped Miletus (another city-state) in a battle against Persia. Athenians didn't actually fight, they just helped Miletus by giving them ships and weapons. Miletus lost against Persia and when Persia discovered that Athens had helped Miletus they wanted the Athenians killed. Thus the battle of Marathon began.
