Bayern Munich coach Jupp Heynckes has revealed that winger Arjen Robben will start in place of Franck Ribery against Borussia Dortmund in the DFB Pokal quarter-final on Wednesday.

Ribery is suspended for the clash, while Robben scored for the Bavarian giants in their 6-1 home win against Werder Bremen in the Bundesliga on Saturday.

"There's no need to make a secret of it," Heynckes told Bayern's official website. "Provided he stays fit and trains as normal tomorrow, he'll obviously start on Wednesday."

Robben was rested from training on Monday.
