German champions Bayern Munich has extended their unbeaten run to 39 games with their 3-0 win over bottom-of-the-table Braunschweig at the Allianz Arena on Saturday in the Bundesliga.

The victory is the Bavarians' sixth on the bounce since drawing at Bayern Leverkusen in October and although Pep Guardiola's side secured a record tenth successive Champions League win recently, they have dropped just four league points this term collecting 38 points from a possible 42.

According to CNN, a first-half brace from Arjen Robben, in the second and the 30th minute, ensured his side's victory in the match, with Guardiola saying that although they did not manage to bring striker Mario Mandzukic into the game, he, however, is happy with the performance.

Meanwhile, second-place Leverkusen posted a resounding 3-0 victory over second-from-bottom Nurnberg, while third-place Borussia Dortmund also kept in touch with a 3-1 away to Mainz in a game, which was goalless with 20 minutes to go.

In the bottom half of the table, Hoffenheim and Werder Bremen played out a 4-4 draw, while the game between mid-table Hertha Berlin and Augsburg ended goalless, the report added.
