The
19th round of Germans Bundesliga brings on Saturday the fixture between 1. FSV Mainz 05 and Hannover 96. Mainz 05 is on table rank 10 and is unbeaten at their own stadium so far. Hannover faces the relegation place. In the away game against Mainz Mirko Slomka gives his debut as Hannover manager.
1. FSV Mainz 05 provided in the autumn round for some surprising results. Especially at the Bruchweg Stadium the Tuchel men were very strong. Mainz 05 lost no home game (5 wins, 3 draws) and finished the first season leg on rank 9. The opener fixture of the spring season ended with a 2:4 defeat against league leader Bayer 04 Leverkusen. The 2:4 at Leverkusen was at the same time the 6th season defeat for FSV Mainz. Tuchel´s side is since 6 league games without a win (3 draws, 3 defeats). The last win succeeded on matchday 12 with 1:0 at home against 1. FC Nürnberg.
Hannover 96 started the spring season with a 0:3 home defeat against table last Hertha BSC. Therewith Hannover has not won the last 7 league games (2 draws, 5 defeats). The last 3 matches got lost - 3:5 vs Borussia Mönchengladbach (a), 2:3 vs VfL Bochum (h) and 0:3 vs Hertha BSC (h). Now Hannover 96 will stop the negative run and engaged Mirko Slomka as new manager. His predecessor, Andreas Bergmann, was dismissed on Tuesday morning. Slomka is the third Hannover head coach in the running season.
