All good things must come to an end. Unfortunately, for Real Madrid's rivals at least, it doesn't look like Carlo Ancelotti's side are in any rush to take their foot off the pedal.
A 5-0 Copa del Rey victory over UE Cornella in midweek was their 17th successive win in all competitions. It's a run that has included two wins over Liverpool, Clasico success against Barcelona and plenty of hammerings.
In 12 of those 17 wins, Madrid have scored at least three goals; against Deportivo La Coruna they hit eight.
Depor, though, may seek solace in the fact they're the only side to have breached Los Blancos' back line more than once since the European champions embarked on this remarkable winning run.
The Madrid defence has only been opened up on seven other occasions during the current hot streak, keeping nine clean sheets—with eight of those coming in the club's last 12 outings.
Celta Vigo head to the Bernabeu this weekend, but despite their recent success at Camp Nou, it's unlikely they'll be expecting to leave with anything.
