With the draw against Betis (1-1), Barça has accumulated 22 unbeaten matches in 2025, with 18 wins and 4 draws, marking their best start to the year since 2016
The FC Barcelona ended its streak of 9 consecutive wins in LaLiga with an unexpected draw against Betis (1-1). However, the team managed by Hansi Flick maintains its impressive run of results and remains unbeaten since December 21 (1-2 against Atlético de Madrid), with a record of 18 wins and only 4 draws, scoring 67 goals (3.04 per match), while conceding only 21 (0.95 per match).
The Barça streak began on January 3, with a thrashing in the Cup against Barbastro (0-4). Since then, only Getafe (1-1 in La Liga), Atalanta (2-2 in Champions), Atlético (4-4 in the Cup), and, this Saturday, Betis (1-1) have avoided defeat against the Catalans. The tally in terms of thrashings is overwhelming, with 11 of the 18 victories achieved this way, one of them to secure a title (the 'manita' against Real Madrid in the Supercopa de España, 2-5).

Flick's Barça Matches Luis Enrique's Record
Thus, the team managed by Hansi Flick has managed to equal the unbeaten streak that the team led by Luis Enrique achieved at the beginning of 2016. Barça reached a streak of 22 matches without losing in official competitions (League, Cup, and Champions), from January 2, 2016, with a 0-0 draw against Espanyol, until April 2, when they lost 1-2 against Real Madrid in LaLiga.
During this period, the team achieved 19 victories (12 in the League, 5 in the Cup, 2 in Champions) and 3 draws (2 in the League, 1 in the Cup). At that time, the knockout rounds of the Cup were played over two legs. In the League, in fact, the Catalans strung together 12 consecutive victories until the fall in the Clásico, while in Champions they eliminated Arsenal in the round of 16 with an aggregate score of 5-1.
The defeat against Madrid, on the other hand, initiated a streak of 3 losses in the League, but Barça managed to secure the title with a 1-point lead over the 'merengues'. In Champions, the azulgrana team would fall in the quarter-finals against Atlético (3-2 on aggregate), while the Cup did remain in the Catalan trophy cabinet, after a 2-0 victory over Sevilla in extra time at the Vicente Calderón.
