Bayern Munich Arjen Robben targets title win against "much-improved" Borussia Dortmund

Arjen Robben would love Bayern Munich to clinch the Bundesliga title with victory in Saturday’s Der Klassiker with Borussia Dortmund because "the fans deserve it".

Bayern have lifted the Meisterschale on eight occasions since the opening of the Allianz Arena in 2005, but not a single one of those crowns has been claimed at a home game.

The top-of-the-bill Matchday 28 encounter with Dortmund provides Jupp Heynckes’ men with the opportunity to end that streak, though to do that they require victory and for second-placed Schalke, who face Freiburg earlier in the day, to drop points.

"Of course that’s in the back of our minds. If you could wish for the time for it to happen, it would of course be next Saturday," Robben told Bayern’s official website. "The last six titles have all been won away from home.

"The fans deserve that we win them the title at home. But we’re still dependent on others, and unfortunately cannot decide that ourselves."
