Bayern Munich's Dayot Upamecano closes in on Bundesliga unbeaten record

Upamecano has gone 53 consecutive Bundesliga matches without defeat, three games short of Jérôme Boateng's all-time record of 56.

Bayern Munich defender Dayot Upamecano is closing in on a historic Bundesliga milestone. The French centre-back has now gone 53 consecutive league appearances without a defeat, stretching back to the start of the 2024/25 season. He sits just three games away from equalling the all-time record held by former Bayern defender Jérôme Boateng, who recorded 56 consecutive matches without loss between 2012 and 2014.

Upamecano has moved into third place on the all-time list, overtaking players including Franck Ribéry, Manuel Neuer and Thomas Müller. Only Bayer Leverkusen goalkeeper Lukáš Hrádecký, with 54 matches, stands between him and Boateng's record.

Remarkably, Bayern teammates Konrad Laimer and Josip Stanišić are also on active unbeaten runs of 43 matches, sitting joint-13th all-time and needing just one more game to crack the top 10.
