Team News

Mainz
Borussia Dortmund
  • Phillipp Mwene is on the naughty step for one more game after his recent sending off, while Nadiem Amiri and Brajan Gruda are both available after suspension.
  • Jessic Ngankam has a thigh injury, while Stefan Bell has a heart inflammation issue that is of concern. Karim Onisiwo fractured three fingers against Koln and is a doubt. Maxim Leitsch has adductor problems.
  • Edin Terzic will probably wield the rotation wand after the Champions League game in midweek.
  • Emre Can and Ian Maatsen are both available after suspension, while Julien Duranville has a muscle injury. Ramy Bensebaini is nearing a return from a knee injury.

Prediction

  • BVB will be bouyed by reaching the Champions League Final and are already qualified for next season's comp, irrespective of what happens at Wembley.
  • Despite a seven-game unbeaten run under Bo Henriksen, their third boss of the season, Mainz are still in acute strife languishing in the relegation playoff spot.
  • BVB lost the Bundesliga title to Bayern after agonisingly failing to beat Mainz on home soil on the final day of last season.
  • Mainz have drawn a league-high 14 times with the reverse fixture ending 1-1 and this could be another stalemate.
