Best League Record in Europe
Jesús Carrillo
FC Barcelona have produced the best stats of all the winners of Europe’s major leagues, with the most points, the most victories, the fewest matches lost and the best goal difference.
The champions in England, Germany, Italy and France finished the season well behind Barca’s
impressive figures. Chelsea won the Premiership with 86 points, Bayern needed just 70, Inter did it
in Serie A with 82 while Olympique Marseille lifted the French title with 78.
31 victories
Here
in Spain the league title was a two-horse race with Barca and Real Madrid fighting it out to the
very last match. They both notched up 31 wins, while treble-winning Inter won just 24 league
matches, Bayern 20 (although the Bundesliga has just 18 teams, 2 fewer than in La Liga) and Chelsea
secured 27.
Goals conceded and goal difference
Defensively, Barca also came out on top, conceding a miserly 24 goals in 38 league matches.
In comparison, Inter conceded 34, Chelsea 32, Bayern 31 and Olympique Marseille 36.
Barca is also the clear winner in terms of goal difference, finishing the league season with
+74. Chelsea came closest with +71.
