​Borussia Dortmund forward Jadon Sancho insists that the club "want revenge" when they take on Bayern Munich at the Allianz Arena this weekend, having been on the end of a 5-0 defeat in Bavaria last season.


The 19-year-old, who will feature in his fifth Klassiker if he plays on Saturday, has picked up where he left off last season and has been directly involved in nine goals in just eight appearances in the Bundesliga.


Sancho also picked up a goal and an assist when Borussia Dortmund played Bayern Munich in the DFL-Supercup at the start of the season, but the England international is still looking for "revenge" for last season's defeat at the Allianz Arena.

"I think when we go to Munich we want revenge," Sancho said on BVB's official YouTube channel. "There's pressure on both teams. Bayern have some crucial injuries and changed their manager. 


"I picked up a knock against Inter, Marco [Reus] might be out and Paco [Alcácer] is only coming back. Whoever has the most desire will come out on top.


"These are the games I love to play in, the big games. It's going to be a good game. I'm very excited. Hopefully I should be there on Saturday. I’d like to be there."


It's not just Sancho who is looking to make amends for last season, with Axel Witsel also speaking out on Saturday's Klassiker.


The Belgium international was critical of Borussia Dortmund's most recent performance at the Allianz Arena, but Witsel also added that it was important for the club to get their own back this time around.


"In the first game [at the Westfalenstadion] we played with balls, but not in Munich," Witsel told Sport Bild. "Our quality didn't deteriorate so dramatically in such a short time. Once we acted like men, once like children.

"We're going to Munich to win the game. We want to make amends for the horrible 0-5 loss in our second game against them last season.


"We are aware that this will be anything but easy. Bayern is and remains a big team with a winning mentality and a lot of experience. But we want to show that we have character and fighting spirit. We will fight back this time."
