Bayern Munich have also let in just four goals in 2017.

United have the best defensive record in the Premier League, while Bayer have let in the least goals in the Bundesliga.

In fact just one team in in Europe’s six most financially powerful leagues – Premier League, La Liga, Serie A, Bundesliga, Ligue 1 and Super Lig – can boast a better defensive record.

Trabzonspor have conceded just three goals in 2017. The Black Sea Storm have not actually lost a league game and have gone from facing the possibility of a relegation battle to breathing down the neck of 4th placed Fenerbahce.
