Bayern Munich have been one of the most consistent performers in the Champions League, especially in the last few years.

In 2019-20, the Bavarian giants won their sixth Champions League title to join Barcelona as the only European team with multiple continental trebles. That season, Bayern won every game in the competition, becoming the first club in Champions League history to do so.

Bayern have been the epitome of consistency in the Champions League over the years. Since 2002-03, they have gone past the group stage in every subsequent edition of the competition.

The record Bundesliga winners look good for another deep run in the Champions League this season. In two games, they have scored eight goals and conceded none.


#2 Barcelona - 156

Like Bayern Munich, Barcelona have been consistent performers in the Champions League over the years.

The Blaugrana are one of only three teams to win over 150 games in the competition. The four-time winners haven't won the Champions League since their 2014-15 continental treble, though.

Since 2000-01, Barcelona have reached the knockout stage/second group stage in each of their subsequent appearances in the competition. However, that run could come to an end this season, as the Blaugrana have made their worst start ever to a Champions League campaign.

Defeats at home to Bayern Munich and away to Benfica, both by a 3-0 margin each, mean Barcelona are without a goal or a point in their group. If they fail to arrest their slide soon, a group-stage exit is a distinct possibility.


#1 Real Madrid - 166

Real Madrid, unsurprisingly, are the team with the most match wins in the Champions League. They have the most titles (7) of any team in the competition's present avatar.

The 13-time Champions League/Champions Clubs' Cup winners are the only team in the Champions League era to successfully defend their title. They did so in 2017 as part of an unprecedented three-peat (2016-18).

Madrid have been regulars in the Champions League since 1997-98, when they won their first of seven titles in the competition.

The Merengues started their 2021-22 campaign with a win at Inter. But they slumped to a shock defeat at home to competition debutants Sheriff. However, Carlo Ancelotti's men are expected to overcome that hiccup and make a deep run in the competition.
