Full-time: Wolfsburg 1-1 Mainz

The spoils are shared at the Volkswagen Arena. Aaron Zehnter's first Wolfsburg goal gave his team the lead early on, and although the Wolves struggled to created much after that, they looked comfortable defending against Mainz. However, the Zero-fivers improved as the game progressed and, after hitting the post through Dominik Kohr, Nadiem Amiri scored a penalty after a Konstantinos Koulierakis handball late on. Armando Sieb then struck the crossbar in added-on time as the hosts escaped with a point after Mattias Svanberg was sent off for two yellow cards in a minute.

Crossbar!

What a chance for Mainz to snatch all three points as Sieb hits the bar - that is now the second time Mainz have hit the woodwork in this match!

All square!

Amiri makes no mistake from the spot. Mainz are back on level terms and now have the momentum to go on and maybe find a winner!

Lifeline!

The visitors have an incredibly opportunity to equalise as a spot-kick is given following Koulierakis' handball. Amiri steps up to take it. Can he convert?

Save!

This time, Grabara is in the way as Sieb fires a shot towards goal. A late flurry from Mainz here as they continue their quest for an equaliser.

Post!

Almost for Mainz, as Kohr heads onto the upright from a corner. That was the closest they have come to scoring, and will give them confidence in this encounter's closing stages.

Denied

Zentner leaps to push Svanberg's rasping effort over the bar. That was probably the best chance of the second half.

15 minutes remaining

There is still time left for Mainz to find an equaliser. At the moment, though, their opponents are keeping them at arm's lengths.
71'

Close!

Amiri's shot from outside the box is deflected behind for a corner by Arnold. Still, that wasn't far away. Mainz are really beginning to up the ante right now.
67'

Save

A shot on target from Wolfsburg as Koulierakis' attempt from outside the box is grasped by Zentner. Such forays forward have been rare from the Wolves in this second half.

Plenty of the ball

Mainz are enjoying a spell of possession and territory, but they are not doing too much with it.

Half-time: Wolfsburg 1-0 Mainz

The hosts are ahead at the break. Aaron Zehnter was the goalscorer, with his shot deflecting off Anthony Caci and into the back of the net. Otherwise, the Wolves have not created much, but they have kept Mainz quiet and are therefore in front.

Wolfsburg took their chance

Looking for a quick response

Mainz will be desperate to react quickly here.

What a start!

Wolfsburg are in front, and it is a first goal for Zehnter since his summer move from Paderborn, although the deflection off of Caci does give him a helping hand. Still, Wolfsburg won't care!

Wolfsburg team news

Wolfsburg, meanwhile, name the same team as the one that beat Heidenheim in their season opener. That means that Mohammed Amoura starts on the substitutes bench, with Dženan Pejčinović leading the line instead.

Mainz team news

Bo Henriksen makes just one change to the team that beat Rosenborg 4-1 in the UEFA Conference League on Thursday, and it is an enforced one; Paul Nebel, who was sent off on the opening day of the Bundesliga season against Cologne, is suspended and is therefore replaced by Arnaud Nordin.

A new addition to the wolf pack

New signing Sael Kumbedi will be in the squad to face Mainz on Sunday, manager Paul Simonis confirmed.

Jenz a familiar face

Wolfsburg's Moritz Jenz was on loan at Mainz during the 2024/25 campaign, and made 19 appearances in the 05ers run to European football.

Bo Henriksen on coming up against Wolfsburg

"We need to take this game with us [the win over Rosenborg] because we played an outstanding game. It was fantastic for us and our fans, but for this club the most important thing is the Bundesliga. It will be a difficult game against a difficult opponent, but we've also had some good experiences in Wolfsburg so hopefully we can get another win."

Paul Simonis on hosting Mainz

"They're a strong opponent and they did well yesterday [against Rosenborg]. They're very aggressive, very direct and I hope that we can outplay their press and be dominant like we were against Heidenheim. We controlled that game for around 75 minutes, so let's hope this is going to be a similar game."

Mainz into Conference League

The 05ers overturned a 2-1 first-leg deficit in some style on Thursday by beating Rosenborg 4-1 at home to win their play-off tie and book a place in the league phase of the 2025/26 UEFA Conference League.

Good on their travels

Conversely, Mainz picked up eight wins away from home last season, which is their best tally in the Bundesliga after 2010/11. The 31 goals they scored on the road was a new club record.

Issues at home

That 4-3 win in December was one of just three times Wolfsburg got three points at home in 2024/25. They last beat Gladbach 5-1 in their first game of January but haven't managed another Bundesliga victory at the Volkswagen Arena since. That's a run of eight games. A ninth would be a new unwanted club record at this level.

Touring the Autostadt

Mainz have scored 30 goals across their 19 Bundesliga visits to Wolfsburg, which is more than they have away at any other club in the top flight. They got three here last season but still ended up losing 4-3.

Advantage Wolves

Wolfsburg have won 20 out of 48 meetings with Mainz across the Bundesliga and Bundesliga 2 (D17, L11). The most famous of those came in June 1997 when the Wolves snatched a 5-4 victory at home to secure promotion to the top flight for the first (and so far only) time. A certain Jürgen Klopp scored in vain for Mainz that day but would later lead the 05ers into the Bundesliga as coach in 2004.
