Full time! Leverkusen 2-3 Mainz!
Mainz claim the points to climb above Leverkusen into ninth. Superb entertainment at the BayArena - but how different it might have been had Dahmen not saved Tapsoba's early penalty.

Temper, temper
Kohr's booked for bringing down Frimpong. The Leverkusen sub isn't happy at all with the challenge. He lets everyone know - but avoids a second yellow.

Last throw of the dice
Forget being a man down - Alonso needs a goal. Is Hlozek the man to haul Bayer back on level terms?

Late goal!
Adli's sent off for pulling down Widmer in the area. Ingvartsen steps up and sends Hradecky the wrong way from the penalty spot! Let's see if the 05ers can defend their lead...
79'
Safe hands
Dahmen swallows up a left-wing cross from Demirbay. He's impressed during his run of seven straight appearances in the absence of Zentner. Will he keep his place for next week's home game with Gladbach, now the Mainz No.1 is fit again?

Wing men
Changes in the wing-back positions for Mainz. That has two functions: to keep tabs on Frimpong and Hincapie, who've caused the visitors real problems since coming on, and give Mainz a welcome attacking outlet on both flanks.

Fresh legs
Kohr provides an extra man in midfield, while Ingvartsen offers a like-for-like alternative to striker Ajorque.

What a save!
Onisiwo meets Stach's corner with a downward header, and there's Hradecky with a Gordon Banks-esque save to claw it up and over the crossbar. Stunning goalkeeping!
59'
Instant impact!
The substitutes are all involved as Frimpong connects with Hincapie's back-post cross, forcing Dahmen to parry. Azmoun smashes the upright, with the loose ball deflecting off Wirtz for Schick, who wellies it into the back of the net.
56'
Attacking change
Wirtz is on for Sinkgraven, and here's Schick. He's been restricted to two goals in 11 appearances in what's been an injury-hit season, but returned as a sub in midweek. The Czech striker struck 24 times in the Bundesliga last term...
49'
Purposeful start
Leverkusen have come flying out of the blocks. Twice already Mainz have needed some desperate defending to keep the home side in check in the final third.
46'
Double change
No surprise to see Frimpong and Hincapie on for Leverkusen. They should bring defensive stability and a bit more zip in attack. How long before Alonso calls on Florian Wirtz?

Barreir-goal!
Mainz retake the lead on the stroke of half time. Lee cushions a long ball into the box into the path of Barreiro, who steals in on the penalty spot to volley past Hradecky.

Close!
A ball into the box takes a nick off Kossounou and goes just wide. Nothing comes of the ensuing corner, though.

Pinball!
A corner from the Mainz left causes panic in the Leverkusen box. A few half clearances keep the chance alive, before the whistle sounds for a foul against Amiri.

Parity!
Leverkusen are not behind for long. A slip from Edimilson Fernandes presents Azmoun and Co. with the overload. The Iranian charges forward and squares for the unmarked Amiri, who makes no mistake from inside the area. Game on!

Dahmen flashes Tapsoba a cheeky smile, before diving to his right to save his first Bundesliga penalty. That could be a huge moment in the game!

Bogey team?
Mainz have failed to score in seven of their last 10 meetings with Leverkusen, whilst winning just one (D1, L8).
Svensson wary of Leverkusen pace
"Leverkusen are a top-five team that got off to a difficult start to the season," opined Svensson in his pre-match press conference. "Alongside a lot of individual quality, they're full of pace. We saw that when two counters decided a game that really we had dominated [last time out]. You have to stop the likes of Frimpong running at speed into space. It's a tough task, but we're looking forward to it."
More on those teams
Alonso makes five changes to the team beaten 3-2 by Monaco in the Europa League on Thursday. In come Odlion Kossounou, Daley Sinkgraven, Kerem Demirbay, Amine Adli and Sardar Azamoun. Jeremie Frimpong, Piero Hincapie, Exquiel Palacios and Florian Wirtz are on the bench, but Moussa Diaby misses out. Patrik Schick is also in the squad, after making his return in midweek after three months out. Mainz are unchanged from the 3-1 win over Augsburg, though goalkeeper Robin Zentner and captain Silvan Widmer do return to the bench.
