BERLIN (Reuters) - Jupp Heynckes starts his fourth term at German champions Bayern Munich with a home game against Freiburg on Saturday knowing that his team must instantly snap back into winning mode.

The 72-year-old replaced the sacked Carlo Ancelotti last week after a string of bad results left Bayern second in the Bundesliga, five points behind Borussia Dortmund.
