1. FSV Mainz 05 also ended their European adventure midweek and have almost a full squad to choose from as they return their focus to the bread and butter of the Bundesliga. The only notable absentee is striker Jhon Cordoba, who is sitting out a suspension. After his goalscoring Bundesliga debut in Berlin, youngster Aaron Seydel could get the nod to replace him, meaning coach Martin Schmidt would not have to tinker with his tactics and formation.
