Bayer 04 with a historical record: undefeated away in 2024!

Augsburg, Deutschland - Bayer 04 Leverkusen wrote history! As a second German football team, the team completed an entire calendar year without defeat in away games. Only Bayern Munich had succeeded before, and Leverkusen even exceeded Munich balance. In 2024, the Werkelf will be undefeated in 17 Bundesliga games and 2 DFB Cup games, which is a new record that captain Lukas Hradecky reports proudly. "We could not stay without defeat for a full year, but if we win against Freiburg, we should be completely satisfied in the Bundesliga, even with the points in the Champions League." He made this clear this before the last game of the season after the season was completed with another 2-0 victory in Augsburg, where it all started when they also won 1-0 in January and even celebrated seven competitive victories in series this year.

a little more than just records

The fact that Bayer 04 only had to accept a setback in his own stadium in the 2: 3 against Leipzig in his own stadium is particularly impressive. With this record balance, the Leverkusenians can show off, while Bayern Munich, the annual dominator of the Bundesliga, was unable to build on the achievements of the past years, as can be seen from the FC Bayern Munich seasonal record, the Statista . Bavaria had to accept a painful 1-2 defeat in Mainz, which meant that they could not set a record for undefeated away performance this season, Bayer 04 can now claim.

The Leverkusen captain Granit Xhaka emphasizes: "This away series shows our quality. It is brutally difficult in Augsburg, but we made it totally sovereign from start to finish." In fact, Bayer has shown a form that is reminiscent of previous championship years and with which they demonstrate that they are among the top teams in the league. With this outstanding performance, you want to set an example not only in Germany, but also internationally.
