Runaway leader Bayern Munich can become the first team ever to secure the Bundesliga title before the end of March if it beats Hamburg on Saturday evening and other results go their way.

Borussia Dortmund has won the past two titles, but it currently sits 20 points adrift of Bayern in second place with eight games remaining.

If Juergen Klopp's side fails to win at Stuttgart on Saturday afternoon, record champion Bayern will be in a position to clinch its 23rd national title, and 22nd since the inception of the Bundesliga half a century ago.
