It was only last week that history was created in the Premier League. For the first time ever, two teams had managed to keep a 100% record till Matchday five. But as they say, good things don't last for long and after a disappointing draw with West Ham yesterday, Chelsea became the latest team to have lost their perfect record.
Before the international break, there were eight different teams all across Europe to have an imposing 100% record. And if we take a look at the European leagues now, we'll find that time has taken its toll on the teams. Surprisingly, no La Liga team has a 100% record this season.
As of now only five teams remain in the so-called 'Big Five' leagues across Europe which can boast of a 100% record. Only five teams have won all their games so far, that is just a testament to how competitive today's football has become.
For some people even a draw is a enough. But there's just something very compelling about the 100% record. Records like this not only get the fans all stirred up, but also provide a psychological boost to the players, who end up giving their all on the pitch to ensure their winning streak continues.
In the fast paced football that we see today, where even the slightest of slip ups can end up costing the team the game, the fact that 5 teams have won all of their matches so far, demands respect and recognition from us.
With that being said, let's take a look at the 5 teams who have maintained a 100% record in their domestic leagues so far.
#5 Bayern Munich
Not surprisingly, it is the Bavarian juggernaut, FC Bayern Munich, which is the only German team this season with a 100% record.
Bayern have been absolutely dominant so far, as usual, having scored 11 goals in four matches already. They are just too good for their league. They even beat Schalke, last season's runner-ups 0-2, this Saturday. The team is really looking solid under the new manager, Niko Kovac.
They face Hertha Berlin this gameweek, who have also been undefeated this season so far. But, it will be safe to assume that the Bavarians will extend their winning streak to 5 games for sure.
#4 Juventus
The defending Serie A champions, Juventus seem to have found their rhythm very early this season. With five wins in as many league games, Bianconeri remain the only undefeated team in the Serie A.
Now that Cristiano Ronaldo has scored for the Old Lady in the last two league games, Allegri must be feeling confident about maintaining the 100% record in the upcoming fixtures.
They face Napoli this Saturday, and that will be the real test of their abilities. Hopefully, they'll be able to continue their run and extend their record.
#3 PSV Eindhoven
Although they were completely obliterated by Messi's masterclass in the Champions League, PSV Eindhoven have absolutely lit up the Eredivise this season.
PSV have won all of their six games, including a brilliant 3-0 win over title rivals Ajax. After that match, they remain the only unbeaten team in the Dutch league.
Not only they have a 100% record so far, they have maintained that record in some style. They have scored a whopping 24 goals already. Which is more than any other team in Europe so far.
#2 Paris Saint-Germain
Ligue 1 giants, PSG's inclusion in this list shouldn't surprise anyone. There's no club as dominant as PSG in French football right now. The Parisians have won six consecutive league games and managed to score 20 goals in the process.
They have a 100% record in Ligue 1 so far and looking at their fixtures in the league, the only challenging opposition they face is Lyon, that too in October. So, if there's any team which is guaranteed to extend it's record, I would bet my bottom dollar that it is going to be PSG.
#1 Liverpool
Arguably the best team in England this season, Liverpool have maintained their 100% record across all competitions after a convincing 3-2 win over PSG in the Champions League.
Liverpool remain the only team with a perfect 100% record in the Premier League this season. To win six consecutive fixtures in the PL is a very big achievement. Not many clubs can claim to have done what Liverpool have accomplished this season.
With the Reds facing Chelsea in their next fixture, their flawless start to the season could be near its end. But, let's face it if any team can defeat Chelsea at this moment it has to be Liverpool.
With the stakes already high in the showdown at Stamford Bridge, now the 100% record is also at stake. If the Reds can pull off a victory here, it will be one of their biggest victories under Jurgen Klopp, that's for sure.
