The original six were Rijeka, Paris Saint-Germain, Lincoln Red Imps, Olympiacos, F91 Dudelange and Crvena Zvezda. The latter two still boast their unbeaten records after this weekends games.
F91 Dudelange
At the time of the original post F91 Dudelange were on their winter break in Luxembourg. The league resumed on February 20th and since then F91 Dudelange have won every game they have played. This past weekend they were 2-0 victors over bottom club Grevenmacher, that victory leaves Dudelange eight points clear of nearest challengers Fola Esch.
A glance at Dudelange's unbeaten run shows they are currently on a streak of 22 games without defeat. The last side to defeat them? well that would be Irish first division side UCD in the Europa league back in July. That run includes the domestic cup which Dudelange remain in and play in the last 8 later this month against 2nd tier side UN Käerjéng. Their domestic unbeaten run streches back to the final day of last season in May when Wiltz, ran out 3-0 winners. They have seven league games left the trickiest of which is the away game against Fola Esch at the end of the month.

Like F91 Dudelange, Crvena Zvezda were on their winter break in the Serbian Superliga. Since returning on February 20th, they won every game, up until this weekend. This weekend Vojvodina became only the third side this season to take points off Crvena Zvezda. The Belgrade giants have been utterly, utterly dominant in Serbia this season. After this weekend's draw they find themselves just THIRTY points clear of arch rivals Partizan. A gap that was trimmed from thirty-two as Partizan were victorious against Radnik Surdulica.
Similar to Dudelange, Crvena Zvezda last tasted defeat in all competitions in December when Borac Čačak put them to the sword in a 5-1 rout. In the league their unbeaten run goes back to last May when relegated Radnički Kragujevac left the Marakana with a 2-1 win. Vojvodina's draw halted a run of 24 straight victories, a club record.
Crvena Zvezda have two more games in the regular season before a further seven games are played against the top 8 as the league splits into two. So nine more games to go a full season unbeaten. You wouldn't bet against them.
