The Bavarians face PSG in the Champions League on Tuesday

German champions Bayern Munich warmed up for next week’s Champions League Round of 16 match against French giants Paris St Germain after thrashing VfL Bochum 3-0 to move three points clear at the top of the Bundesliga.

Bayern top the standings with 43 points, three ahead of second-placed Borussia Dortmund. Union Berlin, in third on 39, are in action against RB Leipzig later on Saturday.

Thomas Mueller opened the scoring in the 41st minute and substitute Kingsley Coman doubled the home side’s lead, four minutes after coming on, slotting the ball through the legs of keeper Manuel Riemann midway through the second half.

Serge Gnabry rifled in a penalty for their third 10 minutes later to seal victory.
