In top spot this week is Bayern Munich, as they move ahead of Paris Saint-Germain thanks to superior numbers, as they march onto the knockout phase with a 100 per cent record so far, with one game to go.

The Bavarian giants' season has been a mixed bag, as they have had a somewhat bad campaign on the home front but a blemishless record in Europe. Niko Kovac was axed as a result, but his erstwhile charges have continued to march on bullishly in the Champions League.die roten

Hans-Dieter Flick commandeered Bayern into Serbia to face Red Star Belgrade, and despite the Serbian club's negative tactics, Die Roten's offensive machine was unstoppable. Bayern smashed 6 goals past their hosts, with Robert Lewandowski scoring the fastest quadruple in Champions League history, thanks to a 14 minutes goal blitz.

The Bavarian giants have garnered the maximum 15 points so far, with 5 wins in 5, and a mammoth 21 goals to their credit.

Bayern is certainly a team in form, and with the Polish destroyer Lewandowski and his offensive teammates in such jaw-dropping form, they are a cut above the rest as they head into the next chapter of the Champions League.
