Bloodied but unbowed: Europe's unbeaten sides

FC Bayern München's 4-1 loss at VfL Wolfsburg means they can no longer finish the Bundesliga season unbeaten. However, as UEFA.com discovers, there are four more teams who could yet have defeat-free 2014/15 league campaigns.

Croatia: GNK Dinamo Zagreb
P19 W15 D4
Croatian title winners for the last nine seasons, Dinamo are aiming for another record. Branko Ivanković's Dinamo went 28 First League games unbeaten from 2006–08 (all victories). Coach Zoran Mamić's charges are currently undefeated in 20, 19 this term, and he said: "I've been with the club for ten years, as player, sporting director and now coach, and this is our best team in that decade."

Malta: Hibernians FC
P21 W18 D3
Branko Nišević's team are now 14 points clear of title holders Valletta FC at the Maltese Premier League summit, yet with points totals halved ahead of the final stages of the season, Hibernians are rightfully cautious. "We have to keep working day in, day out to keep getting results," defender André Agius told UEFA.com. "This has been an amazingly positive run, but we have to keep our foot on the gas because this team can do more."

Ukraine: FC Dynamo Kyiv
P11 W8 D3
Dynamo conceded just seven goals in the first half of the Ukrainian Premier-Liha campaign and sit five points above champions FC Shakhtar Donetsk. "We have regained our appetite for victory and the players know that good work brings results," said 39-year-old coach Serhiy Rebrov, who has already led Dynamo to Ukrainian Cup success in his first term at the helm. "Everyone is eager to get down to business again and is looking forward to the season restart."

Wales: The New Saints FC
P23 W18 D5
With an average return of over three goals a match, the eight-time Welsh champions presently hold a 14-point lead over their nearest rivals, though the full-time side are far from complacent. "I have said from the start of the season, I have got the best all-round squad I have had in three years," said manager Craig Harrison. "However, we don't want to rest there."

Iceland: Stjarnan
P22 W15 D7
Stjarnan claimed their first Icelandic championship in some style, making it through the whole of the 2014 Premier League campaign unbeaten, though it took an added-time goal in their final match to knock FH Hafnarfjördur off the top of the table. "I still can't believe what happened this summer," said coach Rúnar Már Sigmundsson. "It is amazing not to lose a single league game."
