Bayern Munich coach Jupp Heynckes was certainly happy to see winger Arjen Robben in full training ahead of the big derby with Borussia Dortmund.

The Dutchman underwent an operation on his groin on 7 October and has not completed a full training session ever since.

However, Robben managed to complete a 90-minute training session with his teammates on Tuesday without any problems, thus making himself available for the Borussia Dortmund game.

According to Bild, the player looked lively throughout the session, not losing a single ball and shooting from all positions.

Robben is clearly raring to go after the lengthy spell on the sidelines and even though he will be in contention for the weekend’s clash, he will have to settle for a place on the bench.

Bayern currently sit five points clear of Bundesliga champions Dortmund and they are 1.62 (8/13) with Bet365 to win their home clash against Borussia. Unibet, on the other hand, pays no less than 5.60 (23/5) on away win.
