In-form striker Javier Hernandez wants Bayer Leverkusen to build on a morale-boosting weekend victory when they travel to BATE for a pivotal Champions League Group E clash.

Leverkusen ended a run of three straight defeats in all competitions by seeing off Eintracht Frankfurt 3-1 on Saturday.

A first-half brace from Hernandez set Roger Schmidt's team on their way - the former Manchester United player scoring for the seventh consecutive club match, during which time he has amassed 10 goals.

Mexico international Hernandez began this hot steak with another double in the 4-4 draw against Roma last month, while his first goal in Leverkusen's colours came when BATE were dispatched 4-1 at the BayArena in September.

"We're really pleased with the three points and we need to keep going in this flow," Hernandez said after the victory in Frankfurt.

"On Tuesday we're going to try to do the same against BATE in the Champions League."
