With the win in Valencia, Barça has reached a total of 1,400 wins in the Spanish League. Since the 1928/29 season, the club has won 946 home games and 454 away matches.
The most succesful seasons
The current Barça team holds the record for most wins in one season in the league. They did that
last season with a total of 31 wins from 38 games. Guardiola's team only lost one game and drew
six. This season, Barça is on the way to setting a new record. It already has 23 league wins and
can make it 35 if it is able to win the 12 games remaining. It’s a difficult task, but it
seems like nothing is impossible with this team.
The valuable win in Valencia brought a new historic milestone to the long list of landmarks reached
by this Barça team. Josep Guardiola's side recorded win number 1,400 in the 2,523 League matches
since the competition began in 1928. This means that the club has won 55% of matches in the league.
Strong at home
Of the
1,400 Barça league wins, 946 have been achieved at home, representing 67.5% of the total. Among
these victories, the spectacular run of 39 wins in a row between 1957/58 and 1960/61 seasons should
be emphasised. The winning streak began on match-day 22 in 1958 when Barça beat Sporting Gijon 3-0
and finished on the tenth match-day of the 1960/61 season, when they drew 2-2 with Sevilla in the
Camp Nou.
Of the 946 home wins, the biggest margin was in the 1949/50 season when Barça beat Gimnàstic
10-1.
454 wins away
The win in Valencia makes it 454 from a total of 1,262 games. The best away run
Barça has achieved has been in the current season, when Guardiola’s side strung together 12
consecutive wins between the 35th match-day of last season and the 21st of the current campaign. It
was also during this season when Barca won 8-0 in Almeria, the biggest away winning margin achieved
so far.
