Our prediction for this Bundesliga match:
Wolfsburg will look to recover from a 2-0 defeat to Bayern Munich when they take on Mainz in the last round of the season. The Wolves managed to secure the Bundesliga survival, but they surely want to give fans yet another reason to celebrate this weekend. All Dzenan Pejcinovic, Yannick Gerhardt, Mattias Svanberg, Aster Vranckx, and Lukas Nmecha are out of contention with injuries for the home side.
Die Nullfunfer, on the other hand, are desperate to avoid relegation and given their fine performance in a 3-0 crushing of Borussia Dortmund, away win should definitely be considered. Mainz want this win more than Wolfsburg and we predict that the visitors are going to pick up all three points from the decider. The good news for the away team is that important defender Phillipp Mwene is back from suspension, while both Karim Onisiwo and Maxim Leitsch are out of contention with injuries.

You should bear in mind that Grafite and Dzeko scored 54 goals between each other in the 2008/2009 Bundesliga campaign and that the team clinched the trophy thanks to a 5-1 win over Werder Bremen on 23 May, 2009.
