Who are the most in-form teams in European football?

      Real Madrid's defeat by Barcelona last weekend opened up the Spanish title race, and ended a long positive run for the Merengues. They remain unbeaten in 14 European games, though. 

The stars of Europe's domestic leagues, meanwhile, remain Tottenham and Paris – both on eight-game winning streaks, while Porto's 28-game unbeaten Liga run, and miserly defensive record, are unmatched in the continent's leading divisions.
