Bayern Munich clinched a 35th league title on Sunday by beating Stuttgart at the Allianz Arena - but could this prove to be the most impressive triumph of them all?

After nearest challengers Borussia Dortmund fell to defeat at Hoffenheim on Saturday, Bayern needed only a draw to win a 13th title in 14 seasons.

But, as has been the case all season, they turned on the style and came from behind to beat Champions League-chasing Stuttgart 4-2.

Victory keeps Bayern's hopes of winning the Treble alive, with semi-finals against Bayer Leverkusen in the German Cup and Paris St-Germain in the Champions League to come this month.

BBC Sport takes a closer look at the numbers behind Bayern's dominant campaign.

The best team in Bundesliga history?

When Bayern began the season by thrashing RB Leipzig 6-0, it felt like an early warning to the rest of the Bundesliga.

England captain Harry Kane, who scored a hat-trick, Michael Olise and summer signing Luis Diaz were on the scoresheet as Bayern swatted Ole Werner's team aside on home soil.

Over the next 29 games that trio evolved into one of the most formidable forward lines the Bundesliga has seen, driving Bayern to a record 109 goals.

Kane, Olise and Diaz have scored 59 of those.

In the history of the Bundesliga, only two teams had previously reached the 100-goal mark - Bayern in 1971-72 and 2019-20.

The fact that Vincent Kompany's side have surpassed that tally with four games remaining is testament to their breathtaking quality and relentless mentality.

With three of their final matches coming against bottom-half opposition, including second-bottom Wolfsburg and bottom club Heidenheim, Bayern will have their sights set on pushing towards 120 goals.

But it is not just in attack where Bayern have excelled this season. The 35-time champions have been equally impressive at the back, conceding only 29 goals.

Should they win their remaining matches, they would equal the record for the most points in a Bundesliga season - 91, set by Jupp Heynckes' treble-winning Bayern 13 years ago.
