Now unbeaten in 27 league matches

Jesús Carrillo


The win against Getafe has extended Barça’s unbeaten run under Pep Guardiola. Against Sevilla (1-1) they equalised the 1973/74 record of 26 games without a loss and against Michel’s side they extended it.


Now unbeaten in 27 league matches

Since losing to Hercules on the second day of the season, Barcelona have not lost a match in a league they have led since game 13. With 24 wins and 3 draws they have recovered from that early setback to make club history. But they still have to continue the run a little more to catch Real Sociedad, who in 1979/80 went an amazing 32 matches without defeat.

Constant improvement

This seasons stats have even eclipsed the wonderful performances of other recent seasons. Two season ago, Barça had also only lost once at this stage of the season, but had drawn six times, while last term , they had lost one and drawn five. But this time round, their single loss is accompanied by just three draws, meaning they already have four more points than they did at this time in 2009/10.

4 defeats in 47 games

After losing in Seville in the Spanish Supercup (3-1) they bounced back in the return leg (4-0). The same happened against Arsenal after losing 2-1 in the Champions league and the 3-1 defeat to Betis in the Copa del Rey mattered little after they had already won the first leg 5-0.
