Roger Schmidt will continue to call on Javier Hernandez despite the Bayer Leverkusen striker failing to score in his last 11 matches in all competitions.
The Mexico international is going through a goal drought that stretches back to October 1 and missed a penalty last time out against Freiburg.
It is a far cry from the opening months of the 2016-17 campaign when the former Manchester United striker netted seven in eight in all competitions - including a hat-trick against Mainz.
Despite his troubles, Schmidt believes the 28-year-old will come good eventually, and has no intention of leaving him out of Wednesday's Champions League clash with Monaco.
