Bayern Munich winger Arjen Robben has claimed that he does not have an ounce of sympathy for rivals Borussia Dortmund amid their Bundesliga woes.
The Dutchman netted an 86th-minute winner to condemn Dortmund to their fifth successive league defeat in Saturday's 2-1 reverse at the Allianz Arena.
Jurgen Klopp's side won back-to-back Bundesliga titles in 2011 and 2012 but now occupy one of the automatic relegation places in Germany's top flight.
However, Robben expects last season's runners-up to enjoy an upturn in fortunes soon. He told reporters: "I don't think they'd have any sympathy for us [if the situation was the other way around].
"We don't need to sympathise with them: they're a top team despite their league position. I have no doubt they'll work their way back up the table."
In contrast to their domestic form, Dortmund have won all three of their Group D outings in the Champions League - including a 2-0 win at home to Arsenal - and they will look to move one step closer to the last 16 by facing Galatasaray on Tuesday.
