On September 23, in the 6th round of La Liga, Barcelona secured a resounding 5-1 victory away against Villarreal, achieving a perfect record of six consecutive wins in the league and maintaining their lead. Flick has also become the fifth manager in Barcelona’s history to secure six consecutive wins in the opening rounds of the league.
This season, Barcelona have shown an overwhelming momentum in the early stages of La Liga. They won 2-1 away against Valencia in the first round, defeated Athletic Bilbao 2-1 at home in the second round, came from behind to win 2-1 away against Rayo Vallecano in the third round, thrashed Real Valladolid 7-0 at home in the fourth round, secured a convincing 4-1 victory away against Girona in the fifth round, and achieved a 5-1 victory away against Villarreal in the sixth round.
Especially in the recent three rounds, Barcelona have all won by a margin of three or more goals, demonstrating a dominant performance in the league.
This makes Flick the fifth manager after Van Gaal (1997-98 season), Vilanova (2012-13 season), Martino (2013-14 season), and Valverde (2017-18 season) to achieve six consecutive wins with Barcelona in the opening rounds of the league.
