Jurgen Klopp doesn't expect to make many changes when Borussia Dortmund host Mainz on Saturday.

Borussia Dortmund coach Jurgen Klopp has insisted that he does not intend to make wholesale changes to his lineup for the visit of Mainz 05 in the Bundesliga on Saturday.

Klopp's side have already surrendered the title to Bayern Munich, but the coach is keen to avoid potentially disjointed performances.

"It will be an intense game and we don't want to rest anyone," he told UEFA.com. "I will put out an XI capable of beating Mainz."

Dortmund are currently eight points ahead of Bayer Leverkusen in the race for second.
