Barcelona boss Hansi Flick strives for a spectacular end of the 2024/25 season in Catalonia.
Flick sealed the Spanish Super Cup in January, as his first trophy in the club, as part of a striking debut year in Spain.
Barcelona is still on course for a potential treble in the run-in, while entering the weekend with a three-point lead on Real Madrid, after they took a 3-0 win over Osasuna.
Flick has the lead over Carlo Ancelotti, with ten league games to play, and he is confronted with Atletico Madrid in the Copa del Rey Semi Finals, Plus Borussia Dortmund in the UEFA Champions League.
The former coach of Bayern Munich will take it step by step, prior to a crowded April, but an excellent 2025 has been the foundation of their run.
Since the turn of the year, Barcelona has not lost a match in a match, with 16 wins and three draws of 19, with their last loss in the last match of 2024 at home at Atletico Madrid.
An undefeated run of 19 games catches the best Trek of Xavi Hernandez from 1822/23 and corresponds to the record of the iconic Johan Cruyff from 1993/94.
That was seen as the last campaign of Cruyff's 'Dream Team', where Romario yielded 30 league goals on route to winning La Liga.
Flick is now sixth on the list of Barcelona managers with the longest unbeaten stripes with Tata Martino [20]Frank Rijkaard [24] and Pep Guardiola [28] For him.
More recent examples are at the forefront, with Ernesto Valverde delivered 29 undefeated competitions in a row in 2017/18, with no. 1 Luis Enrique in no fewer than 39 games of 2015/16.
Barcelona has at least 13 games this season, which could bring a flick to 32, but he can only get 36 before the end of the current campaign – when Barcelona goes all the way in the Copa del Rey and the Champions League.
