Upamecano Closes in on Bundesliga Unbeaten Record

Bayern Munich defender Dayot Upamecano is closing in on the record for the longest consecutive run of Bundesliga matches without defeat by a player, having taken his tally to 53 matches. The Frenchman has not lost in his nine appearances in the competition during the 2026/27 season, moving ahead of Franck Ribéry, Manuel Neuer and Thomas Müller in the all-time rankings.

Ahead of Upamecano in the rankings are Jérôme Boateng, who holds the record with 56 matches, and former Bayer Leverkusen goalkeeper Lukas Hradecky, with 54 matches. Upamecano’s teammates Konrad Laimer and Josip Stanišić are tied for thirteenth place, each with a run of 43 matches, and both streaks are still ongoing.

Neuer has a current run of 49 matches without defeat, but is awaiting a return to action after his injury. The report also notes that Upamecano and Neuer have not lost in the league under Vincent Kompany, and that their last domestic defeat came in the final round of the 2023/24 season against Hoffenheim, by a score of 4-2, when Thomas Tuchel was Bayern’s coach.
