With a return to the UEFA Champions League for the first time since 2015/16 already confirmed, Wolfsburg can go into the final game of the season against Mainz with a spring in their step. The Wolves stellar season was capped off with that return to Europe s elite club tournament after a 2-2 draw at RB Leipzig on Sunday, with loanee Maximilian Philipp putting his side two goals up before the hosts came back to draw. Oliver Glasner has stuck with the same 12 or 13 players starting most games this season, and that should remain the case for their final game, bar a few enforced changes. First-choice goalkeeper Koen Casteels is out of Saturday s game, and also this summer s UEFA Euro 2020, after undergoing surgery on as long-standing foot injury, so Pavao Pervan is likely to earn his second appearance of 2020/21.
