6 teams that are unbeaten so far in Europe's top five leagues

We are just 10 weeks into the new season of Europe's club football, but the title race in respective leagues is started to gain steam. The standings too is taking shape as some teams have already laid down a marker with a blistering start, while some top shouts are still to take flight.

The Premier League is currently a three-horse race between Manchester City, Chelsea and Liverpool, while Juventus and PSG continue to rule the roost in the Italian and French leagues respectively. Scenarios in Spain and Germany however, are quiet left-field as neither Real Madrid, Barcelona, Atletico Madrid or Bayern Munich, are in pole position.

Of course, everything would be different by the final few weeks. But ahead of the international break, let's looks at the 6 sides who've made a brilliant start to the campaign and yet to end up on the losing side in the league:

#6 Paris Saint Germain (Played 9, Won 9)

PSG's hegemony in the Ligue 1 looks set to continue for another season. With nine victories from nine games and all 27 available points in the bag, this is the best start to a season by any team in the league's history. Commendable job.

Les Parisians have hit all the right notes so far, while the prolific attacking triumvirate of Neymar, Mbappe and Cavani continue to make mincemeat of the defences. In fact, Mbappe struck 4 times in the last game, making him the first teenager in 45 years to bag a super hattrick in a Ligue 1 game. Together, they have accrued 22 strikes already; more than what Real Madrid and Atletico Madrid have managed, combined. Yes, that's right.

New manager Thomas Tuchel is a happy man, though he knows he'd be judged by how he guides his side in the Champions League. Nevertheless, so far so good and it would take some stopping to halt this PSG juggernaut.

#5 Juventus (Played 8, Won 8)

Ronaldo's arrival threatens to increase the gap between Juventus and rest of Serie A

No surprises in the Serie A too as Juventus continue to fire at all cylinders and with eight victories from first eight games, have taken a huge step towards an unprecedented eight successive league triumph. Moreover, there's Cristiano Ronaldo this time to bolster the claims. The Portuguese is starting to find his feet in a new league as he's already registered four goals and assists each in eight appearances so far.

Paulo Dybala is in a good form too, while Mario Mandzukic is seeing more of the net than ever. Juve's defence, well, continues to be Juve's defence and there's nothing new to be said there. They've steamrolled past their domestic rivals and barring a few minor hiccups, are yet to experience serious challenge. Even the league's best hopes, Napoli, were swatted aside 3-1 recently.

If anything, the Bianconeri monopoly looks set to continue, even if there will be a few glitches here and there eventually.

#4 Chelsea (Played 8, Won 6)

Mauricio Sarri's first year at the Stamford Bridge is yet to witness a setback as Chelsea continue to roll on after an erratic season under Antonio Conte last term. With six wins from a possible eight, the Blues are currently second in the standings by virtue of only an inferior goal-difference as it is their best start to a season since the title-winning campaign of 2014/15.

All the premonitions of a year of transition under a new manager have long been banished. Chelsea are doing just fine. All the big players in the side are in great form, spearheaded by the peerless Eden Hazard, who currently leads the scoring charts in the division with 11 goals. Alvaro Morata's tremendous struggle was the only major concern, but with two goals in last as many games, even that seems to subside now.

Chelsea's fixture list has been admittedly kind, as the only challenging games - against Arsenal and Liverpool - were both at home while the next game against Manchester United too, looks to be in the bag given the contrasting fortunes of the sides and again, the home comforts.

So the Sarriball should keep rolling for another month at least until the visit to Wembley to face Spurs.

#3 Liverpool (Played 8, Won 6)

This is Liverpool's best start to EPL, ever

The Reds made their best ever start to a Premier League campaign by winning the first six games on the trot. And although the fairytale run ended with a 1-1 stalemate against Chelsea, Klopp's heavy metal gig remains unbeaten even after eight games now.

Only an inferior goal-difference currently places Liverpool in the third position. But what's more startling is that they've managed this despite Salah misfiring. Having set the league alight with imperious prowess the last term, the Egyptian ace has gone off the rails a bit in the new season, netting only thrice from eight appearances. And the last two games have also seen his strike partners Mane and Firmino cut a frustrated figure.

It is obviously difficult to emulate the standards they set in the last season and the goal would come eventually. But it's more important to see how long can the Red sustain this rich vein of form.

#2 Manchester City (Played 8, Won 6)

Even 5 months after title triumph, City look unstoppable

The Skyblues have started from where they left off last time, and show no signs of stopping. With six victories from eight games, they are also the most prolific in the division with 21 goals and that has propelled them to the top of the Premier League standings.

It hasn't been as explosive as it was last year, but City nonetheless have rolled on. As many as 11 players have been on the scoresheet already, hinting at a slight change in style of play from last season that saw the attackers shoulder most of the scoring burden. And as for the defence, it has only leaked three goals; none in the last four.

Pep Guardiola's swashbuckling side are heavy favourites for another title and even if the odds of pulling off another 100-points return is low, the team has shown they are up for the challenge.

#1 Borussia Dortmund (Played 7, Won 5)

Paco Alcacer-led Dortmund are flying high

With Bayern Munich stuttering after a recent patchy run, Borussia Dortmund have taken the opportunity with both hands and currently sit at the top of the Bundesliga table with five victories and zero defeats. Oh, and also four points clear of Bayern.

Two draws from the opening four games hinted at another erratic season, but huge victories in the last three games - including the 7-0 shellacking of newcomers FC Nurnberg - has propelled the Yellow Submarine to the summit as the only unbeaten side in the division.

Loan signing Paco Alcacer has a huge say in this amazing run, netting six times already. He also bagged a hattrick after coming from the bench in the edgy 4-3 win over Augsburg last weekend. More summer arrivals like Achraf Hakimi and Abou Diallo have impressed too, as the team continued to ride on a prolific attack.

These are only the initial weeks and Dortmund's longevity would be tested in the coming time, but the fine start to the campaign holds Lucien Favre's side in a good stead.
