In-form Jamie Gittens eyeing Der Klassiker victory with Borussia Dortmund | OneFootball

Jamie Gittens has set his sights on continuing his impressive run of form and helping Borussia Dortmund get the better of Bayern Munich this weekend.

Two years on from a breathtaking cameo against Bayern Munich in what was only his second game for the Borussia Dortmund first-team, Jamie Gittens has established himself as an important part of the squad. The talented winger is enjoying his breakthrough campaign with BVB and has reached the next level in his development this season.

Jamie Gittens eyeing win over Bayern Munich this weekend

Gittens is looking forward to this weekend's crunch clash against Bayern Munich and knows that Der Klassiker is a special game due to the intense rivalry between the two clubs.

"Bayern Munich - obviously a massive opponent. The rivalry that we have had - Dortmund and Bayern over the past years has been really intense so it is not a normal game. I cannot say it is a normal game because it is not, but in Dortmund, we know that we have to win this game for people to feel good about themselves and winning this game would be such a big relief to everyone," Gittens said in an interview with the Bundesliga ahead of the game.

The 20 year old has been the game-changer for Borussia Dortmund time and again this season, coming up with decisive goal contributions in a number of crucial matches. He has seven goals and four assists to his name in just 18 appearances across all competitions this season, and four of his goals have come in the UEFA Champions League.

Gittens' performances have already led to calls from some for him be included in the England senior squad. And if he delivers another strong performance against Bayern Munich in the Bundesliga on Saturday, those calls would only get louder.
