Bundesliga Preview
Bayern Munich was in no mood to give the chasing pack confidence last weekend, as they cruised to an easy victory against Borussia Dortmund. They will be bidding to extend their advantage at the top of the standings this weekend, as a victory against Freiburg could see them open up a gap of five points over the second-ranked team in the division.
Thomas Tuchel got an immediate response from his new side against Dortmund, as the league leaders cruised into a 4-0 lead, before switching off and allowing their rivals to net twice in response. Thomas Muller was back to his very best at the Allianz last weekend, as he scored twice in the space of five first half minutes, while Kingsley Coman completed the scoring five minutes into the second half.
