124 goals in 40 matches—more than three per game and with nineteen different goal scorers—are the credentials of Hansi Flick’s Barcelona, the top-scoring team in Europe, putting up numbers similar to Pep Guardiola’s Barça from the 2011-12 season.

To put things in perspective, this Barça, unbeaten since December 21 (against Atlético de Madrid in LaLiga), has recorded 12 wins and three draws, scoring 19 more goals than Luis Enrique’s PSG and Ancelotti’s Real Madrid, 21 more than Bayern Munich, and 23 more than Liverpool.

These are the teams that have surpassed the 100-goal mark so far this season. Barcelona's scoring average is 3.10 goals per game, and their all-time record came in the 2011-12 campaign, with Pep Guardiola at the helm.

Chasing Guardiola’s Barça Record

During that season, the Blaugrana squad reached 190 goals in 64 matches, setting the record for most goals by a European club in the 21st century, averaging 2.97 goals per game, according to Besoccer Pro for EFE.

The challenge is tough because Flick’s Barcelona, even if they reach the Champions League and Copa del Rey finals, would only play a maximum of 61 matches. They still have 12 LaLiga games left, up to seven in the Champions League, and potentially two more in the Copa del Rey.

Flick’s team’s attacking power is best summed up in one stat: they have won eleven matches—27.5% of their total—with a four-goal margin. For comparison, Real Madrid has only won three matches this season by four goals.

The team's top scorer is Robert Lewandowski, with 34 goals in 37 matches, surpassing his previous numbers at Barcelona. He netted 33 in his first season and 26 last season.

Comparing it to last season, after 40 matches, Xavi’s Barcelona had scored 81 goals—just over two per game—one fewer than the current average.

Breaking Down the 124 Goals

The stats show that Raphinha leads the team in assists with 16, while the goal distribution is evenly split between right-footed (53) and left-footed (53) strikes. Additionally, 109 goals have come from inside the box, 16 from headers, 13 from outside the box, 1 from a free kick, 8 from penalties, and 2 were own goals.

Nineteen different players have found the net. The most recent to score were Pau Cubarsi against Atlético de Madrid and Gerard Martín and Marc Casadó against Real Sociedad, marking their first-ever goals for the senior team.

Nineteen Different Goal Scorers

Apart from the goalkeepers, Andreas Christensen and Marc Bernal, who have been injured since the start of the season, along with Héctor Fort and Ansu Fati, every player has scored.

Barcelona has found the net in every game except two: the loss against Real Sociedad in Anoeta (1-0) and the home defeat to Leganés (0-1).
