Recently, Kimmich talked about this week's Bundesliga match against Dortmund in an interview.

Kimmich said: "Dort's defense is very solid. In the frontcourt, they have extremely fast players like Adeyemi and Bayer, and forwards like Gilasi, who also has excellent abilities. We must deal with it carefully. We have a chance to prove ourselves in this game and open up the gap in the standings. This is our goal."
