Team News

Wolfsburg
Mainz
  • Rogerio needs a knee op, while Yannick Gerhardt has suffered a muscle tear. Mattias Svanberg needs a shoulder op, while Dzenan Pejcinovic fractured his foot in Munich last weekend.
  • Lucas Nmecha has suffered another thigh injury, while Aster Vranckx has a niggly calf injury.
  • Phillipp Mwene is available after suspension, while Maxim Leitsch has adductor problems.
  • Stefan Bell has a heart inflammation issue that is of concern.

Prediction

  • On the back of an eight-game unbeaten run under Bo Henriksen, their third boss of the season, Mainz have moved out of the relegation spots at an opportune time.
  • Ex-Southampton boss Ralph Hasenhüttl has eased Wolfsburg's relegation fears by winning three in a row before last weekend's defeat to Bayern.
  • Wolfsburg have dropped 23 points after taking the lead this season; only Gladbach with 31 have let more points slip from their grasp.
  • Mainz have drawn a league-high 14 times with the reverse fixture ending 1-1 and this could be another stalemate.
