Borussia Dortmund midfielder Marco Reus has said that Bayern Munich will be the team to beat in the Bundesliga this season.
Jurgen Klopp's Dortmund finished second in the league last season, 19 points behind the Bavarian giants.
Reus has warned his teammates that they must be more consistent if they are to challenge Pep Guardiola's side.
"It will be all about Bayern Munich again in the Bundesliga, even if they weren't crowned champions in 2007 and 2011 the season after a World Cup," Reus told Kicker.
"As for Dortmund, we will have to ensure we don't drop as many points again as we did halfway through last season.
"We did very well at the start of the campaign and toward the end, but were not at the same level halfway through the season."
Dortmund last won the Bundesliga title in 2012.
