Bayern Munich cruised to a 3-1 victory over title rivals Borussia Dortmund to open a four-point lead at the top of the Bundesliga.

An inspired Timo Werner performance saved the day for RB Leipzig against Hannover in a 2-1 win at the Red Bull Arena.

A deflected Daniel Caligiuri goal helped Schalke to a narrow win against Freiburg and lifted Domenico Tedesco’s team into the Bundesliga top four.

Hoffenheim climbed up to fifth in the Bundesliga with their first win in five against a Cologne side, who remain rooted to the foot of the table, still without a win to their name all season.
