Team News: Robert Lewandowski starts for Borussia Dortmund

Robert Lewandowski has been included in the Borussia Dortmund starting lineup for this afternoon's Champions League last-16 first-leg tie against Zenit St Petersburg.

The Pole had recently been suffering with the flu and had been rated as a doubt for the clash, but he has been passed fit to lead the German side's attack.

However, the match has come too soon for centre-back Mats Hummels, who has recently been sidelined by an ankle injury.

As for hosting Zenit, they have named former Arsenal frontman Andrey Arshavin as part of a three-man attack.

Zenit: Lodygin; Anyukov, Lombaerts, Neto, Criscito; Shatov, Witsel, Fayzulin; Hulk, Arshavin, Rondon

Dortmund: Weidenfeller; Piszczek, Sokratis, Friedrich, Schmelzer; Kehl, Sahin; Reus, Mkhitaryan, Grosskreutz; Lewandowski
