Borussia Dortmund produced a huge result on the weekend as they took a 3-2 win over Bayern Munich in Der Klassiker in the Bundesliga. It was a thriller at the Westfalenstadion as the hosts had to come from behind twice in the game to get their rewards.

Former Dortmund striker Robert Lewandowski twice put the visitors ahead in the match. It hasn’t been plain sailing for reigning champions Bayern at all this season, but they still had managed to put together some fantastic away form in the German top flight and it was showing.

But under Lucien Favre, Dortmund look something a bit special this season. They are an attacking powerhouse and they extended their unbeaten form in the German top flight this season with goals from Marco Reus and Paco Alcacer, which saw them claw their way back twice to claim a 3-2 victory.

That win leaves them four points clear of Moenchengladbach at the top of the Bundesliga with Bayern trailing them by a massive seven points. Overall this season Die Schwarzgelben have posted a W8 D3 record from their eleven league games and they have averaged exactly three goals per game across the course of the season as well.

Dortmund, who really have gotten their attacking flair back for the first time really since Jurgen Klopp left them for Liverpool, also have the joint second-best defensive record in the division as well. They are on the hunt for their first Bundesliga title since 2012.

So that was a big win for them and bet365 had cut them down to 10/11 on Sunday after having closed the previous day at 5/2 to win the Bundesliga outright* (betting odds taken on November 11th, 2018 at 7:14 pm).

That left them at the same price as Bayern who were in as short as 1/3 for yet another Bundesliga title before their defeat at the Westfalenstadion.
