Liverpool FC v Southampton FC - Premier League — After their win over Southampton Liverpool remain the only PL team with a 100% record

#3 Manchester City (6 wins, 2016-17 season)

2016-17 was Guardiola's first season at City

In Pep Guardiola's first season in charge at the Etihad, Manchester City managed 6 consecutive wins in the Catalan's first league games.

This impressive winning streak included a victory over bitter rivals Manchester United in Guardiola's first ever Manchester Derby, that too at the Old Trafford. He couldn't have asked for a better start, right?

Unfortunately, City couldn't continue their 100% run for long and the run was over soon with a 2-0 loss to Tottenham.
