Barcelona have moved above bitter rivals Real Madrid at the top of La Liga courtesy of a 1-0 away win over Mallorca this evening.
The in-form Robert Lewandowski scored the only goal of the game as Barca made it six La Liga victories on the bounce, while they also kept a sixth clean sheet from seven games this season.
Xavi's side have shipped just one goal all campaign, and they were once again resolute at the back with Mallorca struggling to lay a glove on their illustrious visitors.
Coupled with Lewandowski's prolific start to life at the club, that has made for a winning formula for the Spanish giants, who have dropped just two points from the first 21 on offer this term to move one clear of Real Madrid.
The summer signing now has nine goals from his first seven La Liga outings for Barcelona, equalling Lionel Messi's club record and sitting just one behind Cristiano Ronaldo's division record for most goals in the opening seven games of a season.
The latest one, which came with just his 18th shot on target of the campaign, was typically clinical as he collected Ansu Fati's pass before cutting inside and curling a pinpoint finish into the bottom far corner.
Barcelona have now won the last 10 La Liga editions of this fixture - Mallorca's worst run against any opposition in the competition - while the Catalan outfit stretched their unbeaten away record under Xavi to 18 games.
The Spaniard now boasts the best unbeaten start away from home by a manager in the competition's history, with his 18-match streak beating Zinedine Zidane's previous record.
Xavi's men next take on Inter Milan at San Siro in the Champions League on Tuesday, while Mallorca face Elche in their next La Liga outing.
