Bayern Munich (2-0-0) are coming off a dominant performance on the road against Werder Bremen, whom they defeated by 2-0. Bayern Munich were dominant as usual in the first half, but the two teams were goal-less till the 70th minute. Bayern Munich were pushing hard for a goal, and they eventally took the lead at the 72nd minute with Robert Lewandowski, before the same player doubled their lead just 3 minutes later for the final 2-0. They are now sitting at the 2nd spot of the Bundesliga with 6 points, having scored 5 goals against 1 conceded. They are only second because Dortmund have won as many matches, but they have yet to concede a goal, so they have better goal difference.
