Bayer Treblekusen is potentially just two games away
Bayer Leverkusen remain unbeaten in all competitions in 2023/24, the Bundesliga champions now a European record-breaking 49 games without loss.
The unbeaten run brings to an end 31 years of hurt and ridicule for Bayer Leverkusen
Xabi Alonso’s side have ended Bayern Munich’s dominance of German football to win the Bundesliga, reached a first European final in more than two decades, and are on the longest unbeaten run since continental competition began.
Following their last-gasp 2-2 draw with Roma, Leverkusen are 49 matches unbeaten. This surpasses the previous record of 48 set by the Eusebio-led Benfica side between December 1963 and February 1965.
Their streak was already a record for a team from one of Europe’s big five leagues – the Bundesliga, Premier League, Ligue 1, La Liga and Serie A.
And if they can keep it going for just four more games then it could see them pull off arguably one of the greatest achievements in football history – an invincible treble.
