It’s time for the final Bundesliga matchday of the season, as 1. FSV Mainz 05 play what is going to be a special fixture at the MEWA ARENA this Saturday afternoon (15:30 CEST) against Europa League finalists Eintracht Frankfurt – also known as the Rhine-Main derby. “We’ve got one game to go on home turf, and it some of our players’ last run out in a Mainz shirt. We want to play some good football, even if it won’t make a real difference to our league position,” explained Bo Svensson at the pre-match presser on Thursday. Both Jeremiah St. Juste, who is leaving to join Sporting Lisbon, and Daniel Brosinski, who has spent eight years at FSV Mainz 05, will have the chance to bid farewell to the Zerofivers. Ahead of the game, we take a look at some match facts.

VfB Stuttgart slipped to a 2-1 loss at Hertha Berlin on Matchday 31.

“Union has developed incredibly over the past few years with continuity and team spirit. I’m proud and at the same time grateful that I can now also contribute to this development and am very much looking forward to the coming season,” said Pantovic.

When Lukas Ambros was brought off the bench with a quarter of an hour to go against Leipzig, he not only made his Bundesliga debut but also became the youngest Czech player ever to appear in Germany’s top flight. In this interview the youngster discusses that landmark outing, how his loved ones reacted back home, and the upcoming game against Köln.

Sebastian Kehl (to Sky): “We dropped two points today, not because Schalke were so good but because we didn’t take our chances. We also didn’t make a good start to the second half and immediately conceded the equaliser. Nonetheless, we found an answer to that and could have added a third goal. The second half was not as dominant as the first half, even though we could have still turned the game in our favour after it went to 2-2. We were lacking efficiency. We could’ve already scored at least a second and perhaps even a third goal in the first half. That’s how we got ourselves into this situation. Nonetheless, we haven’t lost nine Bundesliga games in a row; we have won eight of them and drawn one. Two more points would have been good for us today, both to keep up with Bayern and to maintain the gap below us.”

Back to Bundesliga buisness, the cup is history. Now it’s all about staying in the league. This Saturday offers the next chance to score important points, when VfL welcome the “Shamrock“. Let’s LOOK AHEAD to Greuther Fürth.

Dion Beljo: “It feels fantastic right now, I’m delighted with the win. Union are a great side, they’re not far off the top and we were well aware of that. We held our own against them from the start and carried out our game plan. I didn’t get onto a cross in the first half, but I knew we would keep bringing the ball forward, and I was in the right place at the right time for the goal! We aren’t safe yet, but we’re travelling to Bochum with a spring in our step.”

Since the last time these two sides met, PSG have strengthened their already star-studded squad even further with the addition of Leo Messi to the attack. With Kylian Mbappe and Neymar, the Parisians have the most lethal front three in world football, though Bayern have scored just as many goals overall this season. Beating them will not be easy, and Nagelsmann’s current defensive setup will need fine-tuning before it’s ready to handle the pressure of three of the best forwards in world football.
