Bayern on brink of Bundesliga title

 

Bayern Munich can clinch the Bundesliga title on Tuesday with a record seven games to spare despite leaving it late to defeat Mainz. 

The champions could have clinched the crown on Saturday had Schalke and Borussia Dortmund dropped points, but both sides won.

Instead, victory at Hertha Berlin will see them beat last season's record of winning with six games left.
