The story so far for the visiting team on their Bundesliga travels is 6 wins, 5 draws and 6 defeats. Mainz 05 are enjoying a nice run from their away games now, having played eight in a row without losing.

Two travels in a row for Mainz, whose manager B. Svensson could celebrate last time after the Bundesliga win against Wolfsburg. The attacker Robin Quaison got a match rating of 8.25 in that game. Quaison scored one goal, served one assist and hit one key pass.

Before that one, a nice away victory 3-2 at Wolfsburg.
