Xabi Alonso's men, unbeaten for 51 matches, have a chance to win a second trophy this season. "Some have tried, and they've had problems," goes a famous line from a French comedy duo. This saying perfectly captures Bayer Leverkusen's season. The 29 different teams that have tried to defeat them have all failed. As the first German club to finish their league season unbeaten (36 matches), the Werkself now hold the longest unbeaten streak (51) in European football across all competitions, surpassing Eusébio's Benfica record of 48 matches between 1963-1965.
