📈 Power Rankings: Change at the top and three clubs enter the top 10 | OneFootball

The international break is here but there was plenty to sink our teeth into last week!

Here are latest OneFootball Power Rankings …

10. Real Sociedad (🆕)

We still aren’t sure where we stand on Real Sociedad. They haven’t been winning consistently but they haven’t been losing at all. It’s good enough to sit top of LaLiga, 16 unbeaten in all competitions, but they’ve also drawn seven of their last 13 games.

A sharper attack — they’ve scored 22 on this 16-game run — would turn some of those draws into wins and help them double down on what has been a fine start to the season.

9. Rennes (🆕)

It may not be gathering loads of attention but Rennes are on one hell of a run. After an inconsistent start to the season, they’re now 10 unbeaten in all competitions with summer signing Kamaldeen Sulemana impressing.

That run, including five wins and two draws in the league, has propelled them to fifth in Ligue 1, just two points from second. And they’re top of a Europa Conference League group that includes Tottenham.

8. Real Madrid (🆕)

A return to form has been more than timely for Carlo Ancelotti’s men, who boast by far the most dangerous attack in LaLiga even if there are question marks elsewhere.

Madrid now find themselves in a commanding position in their Champions League group and have won three of their last four in the league, with Karim Benzema and Vinícius Júnior both shining brightly.

7. Milan (👎 Last week: 5)

Milan continue to disappoint in Europe but remain unbeaten in Serie A.

They needed Inter to miss a penalty to avoid going behind a second time in last weekend’s Derby della Madonnina before improving to head home with a 1-1 draw. Maybe a lack of Europe after Christmas will help them.

6. Liverpool (👎 Last week: 2)

Liverpool looked so in form for so long. Now it’s two in a row without winning in the Premier League.

The Reds look superb going forward but have now conceded two or more goals in five of their last 10 games in all competitions.

5. Napoli (👎 Last week: 4)

Are Napoli finally showing some signs of slowing down? Still top and unbeaten in the league, Luciano Spalletti’s men remain formidable defensively but are starting to find goals a little harder to come by and have now drawn two of their last three in Serie A.

A lot of pressure couldn’t overcome Verona last weekend but Napoli remain top, joint with Milan on points and seven clear of the next closest sides.

4. West Ham (👍 Last week: 9)

What a win! Having beaten Spurs, knocked Man City out of the EFL Cup and blown Aston Villa away, West Ham recorded their most impressive performance of the season yet to beat Liverpool 3-1 at the weekend.

The Hammers have won nine of their last 11 in all competitions and now sit third in the league after three wins on the bounce. Could they really be in the Champions League this time next year?

3. Manchester City (👍 Last week: 6)

To win at Old Trafford is one thing. To do it as Man City and not even look like you’re out of second gear is something else.

Pep Guardiola’s side pulled United around the park last weekend as they continue to quietly go about their business. Consistency is missing, sure, but City remain irresistible on their day and they enjoy their day more often than not.

2. Chelsea (👎 Last week: 1)

A draw at home against Burnley was a bit harsh on Chelsea and they’ll be relieved that Liverpool also dropped points but it still isn’t the result anyone had expected.

Chelsea sit top of the table and are five unbeaten in the league, the league’s longest run, as well as having more wins, more goals, and fewer goals against than anyone else as we head into the international break.

1. Bayern Munich (👍 Last week: 3)

(Video not available to users in USA, Japan, Scandinavia, Poland, Austria, Germany, Switzerland, Brazil, Australia and Oceania.)

Twice lately Bayern Munich have faced a side doing well in the Bundesliga. Twice they’ve won with relative ease.

Saturday’s 2-1 win over previously unbeaten Freiburg wasn’t as spectacular as the 5-1 demolition of Bayer Leverkusen but it was the sort of fuss-free win that defines champions.
