Unbeaten teams from Europe's top 5 leagues so far
With the European club competition finally gaining momentum, the competitions across the continent have yielded a few teams that have still managed to remain unbeaten. While a few of them are the regular footballing powerhouses of their respective leagues, there are a few surprise packages who might yet prove to be the dark horses that go on to upset the plans of the bigger fish in the competition. We take a look at the teams that are still unbeaten in the top leagues across Europe.
#1 Ligue 1
Paris Saint-Germain remain the only team from the French top-tier to remain unbeaten so far this season. Having won the first four games that they have played this season, they have five wins in six if you count the Super Cup victory against Lyon.
Les Rouge-et-Bleu were held to stalemates in their last two league matches against Reims and Bordeaux, but are still on top of the French league table with 14 points, one more than second and third places Rennes and Saint Etienne. Their draw against Bordeaux could have been avoided if not for the glaring errors made by their goalkeeper Kevin Trapp.
In the absence of the talismanic Zlatan Ibrahimovic, who missed out on a couple of games, Edinson Cavani has really stepped up his game, scoring five goals from six appearances. Contributions from midfield in the form of Blaise Matuidi, Ezequiel Lavezzi and a resurgent Angel Di Maria, who is out to prove a point after a disastrous spell at Manchester United, have seen the Parc de Princes outfit remain unbeaten despite playing far below what is expected of a team of their calibre.
