The first of two derby matches in this round will be played in Mainz. The host is before this round in a position that leads to playoffs for survival, while Wolfsburg has only one point more and it is clear that the match is important for both teams. After four defeats, of which one took place in the Cup, Mainz celebrated in the last round, and Wolfsburg has three defeats in a row, one in the Cup and four games without a triumph. First this season’s duel between Mainz and Wolfsburg ended with a score of 1-1.

Mainz 05

When it was not expected, the team of Mainz managed to break the series of defeat sand celebrate against Hertha. Mainz had no guest victories and they played very badly outside of their stadium, but they were solid, however, the last duel was played against Bayern and they lost it so with a defeat in the Cup by Eintracht, those are four defeats in a row.

The top three in the championship have brought them in the relegation zone and then they finally played a great match away when they completely outplayed Hertha with 2-0. It is a completely different edition compared to what they showed as guests against Hoffenheim when they lost with 4-2. Centee-back Diallo got the fifth yellow card and he was not in the team in Berlin, so Bell jumped instead, but the best move by coach Schwarz was sending striker Quaison to the field, who scored two goals and was a hero of the triumph. That is why we do not expect any changes now.

Probable lineups Mainz 05: Zentner – Balogun, Bell, Hack – Donati, Holtman – S.Serdar, Gbamin, Latza – Berggreen, Quaison

VfL Wolfsburg

The new series of three games without a win has brought Wolfsburg closer to the relegation zone and that is a cause for alarm. However, when it is known that they have welcomed Bayern in the last round, it was not realistic to expect much, but after that match, there is still a bitter taste in mouth, because they were really close to winning one point. Wolfsburg took the lead at the early stage of the match and then they were mostly defending themselves. Casteels had even defended the penalty, but half an hour before the end they received a goal for 1-1.

The second one was received from a new penalty in the injury time and so they were left empty handed. Jung and G.Itter were refreshments in the side positions, while Didav, Steffen and Origi played in midfield and attack. After that duel, coach Schmidt was replaced by the new coach Bruno Labbadia, who is immediately faced with great problems of injuries and suspensions, so now Arnold will not be in the team due to suspension, and S.Jung is also questionable.

Probable lineups VfL Wolfsburg: Casteels – William, Knoche, Bruma, G.Itter – Bazoer, Guilavogui – Steffen, Didavi, Malli – Origi

Verdict:

Mainz has finally defeated the guests and is now in a better mood than Wolfsburg, who unfortunately lost that match and has big problems with absences, so we give the advantage to the host.
