FC St. Pauli v Mainz 05 line-ups confirmed | OneFootball

The starting XIs are confirmed for the Bundesliga clash as FC St. Pauli host Mainz 05.

According to BuLi News, this could be a last chance for St. Pauli to spark a turnaround in a fraught relegation battle. Alexander Blessin's side meet opponents arriving with mixed feelings after last week's turbulent 3-4 defeat to Bayern Munich, when Urs Fischer's team had led 3-0.

St. Pauli, 3-4-2-1: Vasilj, Ando, Wahl, Mets, Pyrka, Irvine, Smith, Ritzka, Sinani, Fujita, Hountondji.

Mainz 05, 3-5-2: Batz, Da Costa, Posch, Potulski, Widmer, Sano, Amiri, Nebel, Mwene, Becker, Tietz.

Both managers go with a back three. Sinani and Fujita are listed behind Hountondji for the hosts, while Becker partners Tietz for Mainz.
