The team already shared this achievement with Barcelona FC and the Athletic club since the previous season, however, the goal conceded by Barcelona and the two scored by Atlético in San Mamés, leaves Sevilla FC as the team that has conceded the fewest goals in La Liga so far. 

After conceding no goals in the match against UD Las Palmas, Eduardo Berizzo's team has accumulated 415 minutes without conceding in the Championship, given that Spaniard Baptistao equalised the score of the league opener in the 35th minute.
