Barcelona recorded wins in all three league games they played in October, scoring 12 goals and conceding only one.
The 27-time Spanish champions kicked off with a 3-0 win away at Alaves before thrashing Sevilla 5-1 at the Lluís Companys Olympic Stadium.
Flick’s men clinched a 4-0 win over rivals Real Madrid at the Santiago Bernabeu in a totally dominant performance in the first El Clasico of the season.
The 59-year-old picks up the Coach of the Month award for a second time this season, having previously won it in August.
Flick fended off tough competition from Real Madrid manager Carlo Ancelotti and Imanol Alguacil of Real Sociedad.
