Wolfsburg are set to host Mainz 05 on Sunday at Volkswagen Arena in their 13th Bundesliga game of the season as they seek to push towards the European qualification spots.

The Wolves are ninth with 18 points and are just two points from sixth-placed Stuttgart, who occupy the division's Conference League spot, while the visitors are eighth with nine points and beat Hoffenheim 2-0 on December 1.

We say: Wolfsburg 1-2 Mainz 05

Both sides are in excellent form, and it would not be surprising if each team created several opportunities in front of goal.

However, Mainz's away record is excellent and they have considerably fewer injuries to contend with, so they should come into the clash as slight favourites.

Freiburg will continue their quest to qualify for European football on Sunday when they travel to face Hoffenheim at PreZero Arena in their 13th Bundesliga game of the season.

The hosts are 14th with just 12 points and lost 2-0 against Mainz 05 on December 1, while the visitors beat Borussia Monchengladbach 3-1 on November 30 and are seventh with 20 points, just one place from the division's Conference League spot.

We say: Hoffenheim 1-2 Freiburg

Hoffenheim are unlikely to create many chances in front of goal considering their poor record in recent weeks, and it is difficult to see them threatening Freiburg given their injury absentees.

While Freiburg might struggle for periods on Sunday given their mixed form of late, they should be confident of victory and are no doubt favourites to claim all three points.
