With a little over a quarter of La Liga in the bag Barcelona has already established an 8-point gap on Real Madrid. Going into the new season Real Madrid was riding the crest of success. Winners of La Liga and the Champions League last season, Real Madrid started the new season by beating Barcelona in the Spanish Super Cup. Ter Stegen has now set an historical record having kept 7 clean sheets in the 10 La Liga matches that Barça have played this season. However, for Real Madrid it proved to be the end of a run that had delivered 13 away wins in a row in La Liga.
