Form, Standings, Stats

Last Game: Mainz 3-1 Augsburg
Saturday, February 11 at 2.30pm in Bundesliga

We said: Bayer Leverkusen 1-1 Mainz 05

With Leverkusen losing to Monaco less than 72 hours prior to kickoff against Mainz on Sunday, we believe the visitors can claim a positive result at the BayArena. Svensson's side have been decent away from home this season, with their front three undoubtedly capable of causing the hosts significant issues in transition. Both teams may settle for a share of the spoils should the match be heading in that direction. Read more.
