Team News

Mainz
RBL
  • Andreas Hanche-Olsen is available after suspension, which is useful for Mainz's defence as Dominik Kohr is suspended after already picking up five yellow cards after six games.
  • Karim Onisiwo has a thigh problem.
  • Assan Ouédraogo is getting over a knee op, while Xaver Schlager is recovering from an ACL injury.
  • David Raum has undergone ankle surgery and will be out for several weeks.

Prediction

  • Leipzig will have one eye on hosting European giants Liverpool in the Champions League in midweek.
  • Leipzig, 17 league games without defeat, are looking good to mount a title challenge, despite consecutive 0-0 draws against likely relegation fodder before the international break.
  • Back second-placed Leipzig to grab the three points with goals at both ends.
