England winger Jadon Sancho is "in his happy place" alongside Erling Braut Haaland as the Borussia Dortmund teenagers look to continue their record-breaking form at Werder Bremen in the Bundesliga on Saturday.

Dortmund head to Bremen chasing revenge for last month's German Cup defeat and three points to stay in the league title race.

Leaders Bayern Munich host bottom side Paderborn on Friday and third-placed Dortmund trail by four points after last weekend's 4-0 thumping of Frankfurt when Haaland and Sancho both netted.

"I just feel like I'm in my happy place," said Sancho, who on current form seems certain to make Gareth Southgate's squad for England's friendlies next month against Italy and Denmark.

"I just love football, if I had a choice I'd play every day until I'm 100 years old."
"We are in a dramatic situation," acknowledged Kohfeldt, who said his final team talk is likely to be direct and "won't include any polite phrases."
