Barcelona and Benfica, the only unbeaten of the great

Barcelona has an impeccable record this season. So far, nobody has been able to win in the 17 games he has played. It has only yielded five draws against Real Madrid, Real Sociedad, Milan, Valencia and Seville. A condition also remains unbeaten in Europe. Of all the big teams participating in the two European competitions, but Barca and Benfica can boast of not having lost a single match.

Many matches to remain unbeaten start to the season is something that until now there had been in the era Guardiola. The campaign had endured more than was unbeaten in the Champions League in 2009-10 that was defeated in the thirteenth game against Rubin Kazan at the Camp Nou (1-2).

In the other two seasons with Guardiola as coach, the losses came quickly. Last season, lost in the first match against Sevilla in Super Cup. In the first year of Guardiola, Barcelona lost the second match against Wisla and the third against Numancia. Both 1-0.

The streak of games without defeat is 23 because the current must be added the final six of last season. Barcelona's last defeat was against Real Sociedad last April.
