Barcelona is on the verge of matching a record held by Real Madrid, having won the first eight competitive matches of the current 2026/27 campaign. This feat is reminiscent of the 2013/14 season, when the team under Gerardo 'Tata' Martino also won the first eight La Liga matches. The Catalan side has been in impressive form, reaching ten wins in their first ten official matches of the season, surpassing the old club record set in 1925/26.

Real Madrid currently holds the record for the most consecutive wins from the start of a La Liga season, having won the first nine matches in the 1968/69 season. However, if Barcelona wins away at Real Betis on Saturday, the two teams will be level. A notable detail is that Barcelona can claim this record outright on 25 October by beating Real Madrid in El Clásico.
