5' With 0 assists to his name this season, Kerem Demirbay is clearly more than just a goal scorer for 1. FSV Mainz 05.

11' Jonathan Tah is having his name booked by the referee on 11.
16' Bayer 04 Leverkusen currently sit in the Array table. A result here could be decisive in the race for the top positions.

49' We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
54' The referee is likely to let players tackle, as he already missed some meaty challenges during opening seconds.
