Bayer Leverkusen is within touching distance of a historic unbeaten season in the Bundesliga. The team won the championship in mid-April with an unimaginable record of 25 wins and 4 draws in 29 rounds.
In the modern era there have only been 3 teams undefeated in a European league. The first was Bayern Munich twice in 1987/88, so it was definitely a subversive season. The second belongs to Jupp Heynckes, who was the champion in the second half of the 1990/91 season. It is an incredible achievement by any standards, but the script is all the more miraculous because Leverkusan is now close to completing a treble in the next few months. It's a miracle that a team from the southern suburbs of Munich can win the Bundesliga without losing a single game in the 29 rounds it has played so far. The record is one loss, set by Bayern Munich two years ago, and it is one and a half games short of the record set by Perugia in 1978/79.
