Thomas Muller says that Bayern Munich "really have to win" the Champions League after being beaten in two of the last three previous finals.

Thomas Muller has stressed that Bayern Munich must banish the memories of their recent Champions League disappointments when they take on Borussia Dortmund on May 25.

The Bavarian giants have twice been losing finalists in the last three years - to Inter Milan in 2010 and Chelsea last season.

Muller, who scored in last year's final, talked up the Wembley clash with Jurgen Klopp's men, insisting that there will be plenty of "spice" between the two sides.

"It is time we won this trophy," Sky Sports News quotes Muller as saying. "If we lose, it will be three times and then you get sort of stuck with a 'loser' tag which is something you do not want.

"I am a bit younger [than other Bayern players] and hopefully I still have a few years of international action left in me, but we really have to win it this time.

"There is a lot of spice in this game and I like spice and I like that we play against Dortmund because there is even more passion in there."

Bayern are bidding for a fifth European triumph.
