With six goals in eight league games in 2021, Andrej Kramaric has helped Hoffenheim keep the relegation zone at a safe distance, but Danny Da Costa's Mainz will be keen on drawing the Sinsheimers back into a basement battle with a win at the ProZero Arena this Sunday. Read our reasons for Hoffenheim vs Mainz prediction and betting tips.
Kramaric has played a key role in leading Hoffenheim from just five points above the drop zone to what now seems to be a comfortable 10-point cushion over the bottom three, including their opponents Mainz, but Sebastian Hoeneß would certainly like more goals from him to ensure that cushion remains heading into the final eight games of the season. Kramaric has scored six goals in eight league games in 2021, 14 in 20 appearances this season, and four in seven career meetings with Mainz.
Behind the automatic choice to lead the attack, Munas Dabbur is expected to come in to replace Christoph Baumgartner, who lasted only 48 minutes of last Sunday's 2-0 defeat to VfB Stuttgart and has been laboring with a thigh injury. Ryan Sessegnon, fresh from being named in the England squad for the upcoming U21 European Championships, should continue on the left with Robert Skov a more attack-minded alternative, or Marco John as another option.
Hoffenheim: Baumann (c) - Adams, Grillitsch, Richards - Kaderabek, Rudy, Samassekou, Sessegnon - Kramaric - Bebou, Dabbur
Out: Akpoguma (match fitness), Bicakcic (knee), Gacinovic (ankle), Geiger (hamstring), Hübner (ankle), Nordtveit (foot), Posch (not included), Stafylidis (shoulder)
Doubtful: Baumgartner (knock)
Coach: Sebastian Hoeneß
Since Bo Svensson took charge of the 05ers, their fortunes have transformed with 15 points from their 11 games under the former defender's guide compared with six from 14 games before his arrival. As a result, they could even leave the relegation zone this weekend for the first time since Matchday 8, when a win at Freiburg lifted them to 15th. Quaison is one of the three highest-scoring players on three Bundesliga goals this season, alongside defender Moussa Niakhate and midfielder Kevin Stöger.
Consistency has been the key and Svensson can once again select from a full squad of players, with just one doubt concerning Karim Onisiwo, who is on the road to recovery from a thigh injury, but may not yet be risked in the starting XI. Should he not make it, Svensson may well name an unchanged side from the one which completed a season double of victories over Freiburg on Matchday 25 - a result which has given them renewed hope in their battle against the drop.
Mainz: Zentner - St. Juste, Bell, Niakhate (c) - da Costa, Barreiro, Kohr, Mwene - Boetius - Szalai, Burkardt
Out: -
Doubtful: Onisiwo (thigh)
Coach: Bo Svensson

Daniel Garcia is originally from Basque Country, and as a kid who grew up just a few streets from Mendizorrotza Stadium, the choice of Deportivo Alavés as his favourite club is more than obvious. Because of his studies, he moved to Madrid where he graduated in Sports Journalism. Daniel plays football on the weekends, but that does not stop him from watching all La Liga matches. He believes that the outcome of a match can be predicted if all the parameters are analyzed well, including form of the players and weather conditions. Currently he is living in Belgrade, and is in love with a Serbian girl who works as a journalist at one of the famous Sport Channels in Serbia.
