This achievement helped the "Gray Tigers" extend their winning streak to 13 matches since the beginning of the season in all competitions.
Under the leadership of coach Vincent Kompany, the Bavarian team started the 2025-2026 season perfectly, without drawing or losing in any matches in the Bundesliga, German Cup and Champions League. Their winning streak started from the German Super Cup match against Stuttgart with a result of 2-1.
According to Opta's statistics, Bayern became the second club in the history of the top 5 European national championships (England, Spain, Germany, Italy and France) to reach 13 consecutive wins since the beginning of the season - an achievement that previously only AC Milan under coach Fabio Capello had achieved in the 1992-1933 season.
However, in terms of performance, Bayern is even superior to Milan when scoring 47 goals and only conceding 9 goals in 13 matches. Meanwhile, 37-year-old Milan scored 45 goals and conceded 13 in the same period.
According to Opta, Bayern is the first team in the history of five major European tournaments to surpass the 45-goal mark but have only conceded less than 10 goals in their first 13 matches of the season. If they win one more, the "Gray Tigers" will set a new milestone - becoming the team with the best start in the history of European football.
