Bayern Munich midfielder Javi Martinez has admitted that defeating Borussia Dortmund in the DFB Pokal on Wednesday will not be easy.
The two sides will lock horns in the quarter-finals of the competition at the Allianz Arena.
"Obviously, the Bundesliga fixture in early December is still fresh in the memory," he told Bayern's official website.
"It was a good encounter and very intense (a 1-1 draw in Munich). I'm expecting the same in the cup quarter-final, although there's even more pressure because it's a knockout match. But we're ready.
"Dortmund are very strong, with top players like [Robert] Lewandowski, [Marco] Reus and [Mario] Gotze, who are incredibly dangerous."
Bayern are currently 17 points clear of Dortmund at the top of the Bundesliga.
