The European champions continued their excellent continental form again in 2020/21 and completed the Champions League group stage undefeated for the third straight year. Just a few months after beating Paris Saint-Germain 1-0 in Lisbon to lift their sixth European Cup, Bayern opened their defence with a 4-0 thumping of Atletico Madrid at the Allianz Arena. Further victories away at Lokomotiv Moscow (2-1) and against Red Bull Salzburg (6-2 A, 3-1 H) followed as Hansi Flick s side secured top spot with two games to spare. A 1-1 draw in Madrid with a heavily rotated side is the only time in 17 Champions League fixtures that Bayern have failed to win, with their run of 15 consecutive victories a new competition record. The Bundesliga champions then ended the group with a 2-0 triumph at home to Lokomotiv. Their 18 goals scored is also the most in the competition.
