In their last five games in all competitions, Bayern have three wins and two losses.

In the second leg of the Champions League Round of 16, Bayern hosted Lazio. The Italian side were limited to five shots, without a single shot on target as a brace from Kane and a goal from Thomas Muller gave Bayern the 3 - 0 win.

Back in the Bundesliga, Bayern took on Mainz. Nadiem Amiri did get on the scoresheet for Mainz, but his first half goal was merely a consolation. A hat-trick from Kane, a brace from Leon Goretzka and goals from Muller, Jamal Musiala and Serge Gnabry secured a massive 8 - 1 win for Bayern.

Tim Skarke did open the scoring for Darmstadt but Musiala’s first goal and a goal from Kane made it 2 - 1 to Bayern before the halftime whistle. Musiala grabbed another goal in the second half and was joined on the scoresheet by Gnabry and Methys Tel in the 5 - 2 win for Bayern, Oscar Vilhelmsson scoring in the 95th minute for Darmstadt.

Goals from Kane and Gnabry gave Bayern the 2 - 0 lead over Heidenheim at halftime. However, a brace from Tim Kleindienst and a goal from Kevin Sessa gave Heidenheim the shock 3 - 2 win.

However, a late goal from Damion Downs gave Koln a big 3 - 3 draw.
