Bundesliga: Robben and Ribery hope to return for nervy title run-in
04.05.19 / 10:00
Bayern Munich coach Niko Kovac has said that veteran wingers Arjen Robben and Franck Ribery will be on hand to help his side hold their nerve in the last weeks of a tense Bundesliga title race.
League leaders Bayern, who host bottom club Hannover today, currently sit two points ahead of rivals Borussia Dortmund with three games to go.
Kovac said on Thursday that the title race would be a "question of nerves", and said that he hoped to be able to count on the experience of club legends Robben, 35, and Ribery, 36.
The long-serving Dutch and French superstars are both expected to leave the club at the end of the season, though there had been fears that injury problems would deny both men a fitting send-off.
