Five matchdays in, Freiburg top the table on goal difference from Dortmund, with Bayern two points back. Bayern host Leipzig this weekend, and Freiburg visit Leverkusen. It's early, but the top three are already setting the pace.
Freiburg and Dortmund both have 13 points and 4W-1D-0L, with Freiburg ahead on goal difference (+10 vs +7). Freiburg's 2-1 win over Schalke on 11 October put them top. Bayern, on 11, are the third unbeaten side.
RB Leipzig's 6-0 win over Eintracht Frankfurt lifted them to fifth with a +10 goal difference, despite two defeats. Bayern are the next test, and they are a far tougher opponent than Frankfurt.
