Berlin: Bayern Munich sporting director Christoph Freund guaranteed coach Thomas Tuchel would be in the dugout for Tuesday's Champions League game at Arsenal despite Saturday's 3-2 loss to Heidenheim.
Bayern had a two-goal lead at half-time but conceded three goals to the promoted club, which left Xabi Alonso's Bayer Leverkusen -- who won 1-0 at Union Berlin -- on the cusp of a first Bundesliga title.
Leverkusen are 16 points clear and need just one win from their remaining six games to lift the title, with Bayern having won the previous 11 league crowns.
Freund told reporters Tuchel would "100 percent" be in charge for the quarter-final first leg in London, despite admitting "losing twice in a week is incredible".
"In three days we've got a very important match. Thomas was trying to bring back energy, to see what things need to be changed and what isn't working," he said.
