( CNN ) -- It may not have had the table topping tension of recent Der Klassiker clashes but the old quality certainly remained as Bayern Munich overcame Borussia Dortmund in a pulsating match at the Allianz Arena Saturday . Marco Reus gave Dortmund the lead going into the break before a sweeping strike from Robert Lewandowski and a late Arjen Robben penalty swung the match in Bayern 's favour . The win marks the first time Pep Guardiola 's men have triumphed against Dortmund at home since 2010 and preserves their unbeaten start to the Bundesliga season . Dortmund , meanwhile , remain third bottom of the table , a remarkable fact given their domestic success and European form of recent years . That there was a 14-place gap between these two teams was far from clear through much of this match , however . Both sides created chances in a high-quality first half that could have ended 3-3 let alone 1-0 . Roman Weidenfeller was given early work to do as he beat away a vicious Arjen Robben shot with five minutes on the clock . Henrikh Mkhitaryan then cracked a post for Dortmund shortly after before a spectacular scissors kick from Thomas Muller was dealt with by Weidenfeller . The speedy Pierre Emerick Aubameyang was denied by Bayern keeper Manuel Neuer just after the half hour mark when put through by Shinji Kagawa -- but Dortmund did n't have to wait long to make the breakthrough . On the very next attack , the dangerous Aubameyang broke down the right and delivered an inch perfect cross that was nodded home by Marco Reus . The German international has been heavily linked with a move to Bayern next summer but showed little regard for his potential future employers here , setting the tempo for Dortmund 's rapier counter attacks . But Bayern under Guardiola are n't used to losing , let alone losing in their own stadium . The second half began with the Bavarians swarming all over their Dortmund , pressing in packs -- as is the hallmark of Guardiola teams -- and pushing their opponents ever deeper into their own territory . Wiedenfeller was forced into action to deny Lewandowski with a fine save while Robben and Xabi Alonso both let fly with dangerous long distance strikes . Defender Mehdi Benatia then missed a golden opportunity when he headed wide from six yards out . But Polish international , Lewandowski , would not be denied after 70 minutes . The ex-Dortmund man was the first to react to a loose ball that broke against Dortmund defender Neven Subotic and he fired low beyond the diving Weidenfeller who had yet to fully set himself . Bayern were now clearly in the ascendancy with Dortmund looking tired and offering little going forward . As full time approached substitute Frank Ribery burst into the Dortmund penalty area where he was pulled back by the chasing Subotic . The Serbian vociferously claimed his innocence but referee Manuel Grafe had no doubts and pointed to the spot . Robben stepped up and calmly placed the ball low into the bottom left hand corner , sending Weidenfeller the wrong way in the process and ensuring his side would claim the spoils . English Premier League . Liverpool 's stuttering start to the season continued away to a resurgent Newcastle United Saturday . Ayoze Perez scored the only goal in closely fought 1-0 victory to give Alan Pardew 's men their third win in the space of six days . Table topping Chelsea , meanwhile , rallied to defeat Queen 's Park Rangers 2-1 at Stamford Bridge thanks to a late Eden Hazard penalty . Surprise package Southampton continued their fine start to the season with a 1-0 win away to Hull City while Arsenal ran out comfortable 3-0 winners at home to Burnley . Elsewhere , Everton and Fulham played out a 0-0 draw at Goodison Park , West Brom overcame Leicester City 1-0 and Stoke and West Ham drew 2-2 . Title challengers Manchester City play cross town rivals Manchester United Sunday . La Liga . James Rodriguez scored twice as Real Madrid ran out comfortable 4-0 winners away to Granada to move top of La Liga . Cristiano Ronaldo and Karim Benzema added to the Colombian 's brace although the European champions could be replaced atop the table by Sevilla who play Sunday . Atletico Madrid racked up an impressive 4-2 victory over Cordoba at the Vicente Calderon with Antoine Griezman ( twice ) , Mario Mandzukic and Raul Garcia all scoring . Lionel Messi , meanwhile , was looking for one goal to equal the all-time La Liga goalscoring record held by Telmo Zarra but the Argentine 's Barcelona side were upset by Celta Vigo who left the Nou Camp with a surprise 1-0 victory . Joaquin Larrivey scored the games only goal early in the second half . Serie A. Juventus moved clear at the top of Serie A after triumphing 2-0 away to Empoli thanks to second half goals from Andrea Pirlo and Alvaro Morata . A 2-0 defeat for Roma away to Napoli earlier in the day means the Bianconeri now sit three points clear at the top of the table . Ex-Real Madrid pair Gonzalo Higuain and Jose Luis Callejon were the scorers for the Neapolitans at the Stadio San Paolo .
