Two struggling teams, Wolfsburg and Mainz, will be desperately looking for a win as they take on each other at the Volkswagen Arena on Friday. Wolfsburg have dropped to the 13th place on the Bundesliga table having lost four out of their last five games.
In fact, they suffered a crushing 1-6 loss to Borussia Dortmund in their last match. Mainz, on the other hand, are sitting in ninth place with 39 points. They are also winless in their last four matches having lost twice and drawn an equal number of times.
Mainz have been much better as a defensive side though. They have conceded 36 goals this season as compared to Wolfsburgs 51 and thats why they have the edge going into this contest.
