Bayern Munich coach Jupp Heynckes believes Arjen Robben is even more important to the German giants' Champions League quest this term.

Although Bayern have not beaten Borussia Dortmund in six meetings since February 2010, they start overwhelming favourites given the manner in which they have transferred their imperious domestic form on to the European stage. Thomas Muller acknowledges the side Bayern wrested the Bundesliga title from have plenty of quality, despite the absence of Bayern-bound Mario Gotze. However, he is adamant his side are the stronger. "Borussia are a complete team," Muller said. "That is harder to deal with than a group of individual players, even though their individuals are also very good. "But I don't have believe we have any weaknesses. We have played a lot of games, scored a great deal of goals and not conceded many. "I have a really good feeling."
