Goal Statistics

Bayer Leverkusen's defensive record is very strong, Xabi Alonso's men having conceded 1 or less in 5 consecutive Bundesliga matches. An underwhelming PG rating of 1.4 for 1. FSV Mainz 05 makes sense in this context.

Bayer Leverkusen's fans will be hoping for goals on Saturday afternoon, not least because 1. FSV Mainz 05 have conceded in each of their last 8 Bundesliga games. A PG of 1.5 for Xabi Alonso's side suggests that run should continue.
