PSG blow Ligue 1 away as Bayern set new records: The best team stats from Europe's top five leagues

A thrilling campaign is now at an end with Barcelona, Bayern Munich, Juventus, Leicester City and Paris Saint-Germain crowned champions in Europe's top five leagues.

PSG were at their record-breaking best in France, while Pep Guardiola bowed out of Bayern with another title and Barcelona held off stern challenges from Real and Atletico Madrid.

With the dust settling on the 2015-16 season across Europe's major leagues, we take a look at the best team stats with the help of data provided by Opta.

 

27,302 - Paris Saint-Germain were Europe's pass-masters, with a top number of passes (27,302) and highest passing accuracy (89.4%) helping them to a leading tally of wins (30) and a Ligue 1-record tally of 96 points.

24 - Atletico Madrid kept an astonishing 24 clean sheets this term, but it was not enough to pip Real Madrid and Barca in La Liga. Bayern Munich's 20 clean sheets mean, like Atletico they were only breached in 14 games this season, while their record of 17 goals conceded was Europe's best - and a Bundesliga record.

711 - Real Madrid's failure to win La Liga was not for the want of trying, their 711 shots on goal were more than any side in Europe's major leagues managed.

38 - Leicester City's stunning season ended in Premier League glory - they were England's first first-time top-flight champions since Brian Clough's Nottingham Forest, who went on to dominate Europe with back-to-back European Cup wins. Could the Foxes replicate their domestic success further afield?
