VfL Wolfsburg wants to reverse the trend in the Bundesliga: after four games without a win, three points should finally be scored again on Saturday afternoon (3:30 p.m., Sky). However, opponents Mainz 05 are also going into the game with big goals – the Mainz team are also three games without a win. With a win, VfL also wants to reduce the gap to the top of the table. The third place in the table from Leverkusen is aiming for something similar in the home game against SpVgg Greuther Fürth without a win – with three points, the Werkself could at least build up some pressure before the top game in the evening between Borussia Dortmund and Bayern Munich (6.30 p.m., Sky).
