THE PREDICTION
Werder Bremen looked comfortable in mid-table a few weeks ago, but five consecutive defeats have left them hovering nervously above the danger zone. Four of those defeats did come against teams currently in the top five, so they will be desperate to stop the rot here against the team directly below them. Mainz have got into that position thanks to a run of just one defeat in their last nine league games, and they could have even been above Bremen by now had their fixture at the weekend not been postponed. Well rested and with a full-strength squad available - unlike the hosts - the 05ers have to be fancied at a stadium where they won 5-0 on their last visit.
