Mainz hopes for third Europa League win against Florence - Henriksen reshuffles Mainz lineup for Fiorentina clash ahead of derby

Mainz coach outlet Bo Henriksen is set to make changes to his lineup for the Europa Conference League clash against AC Fiorentina. The move comes as the team aims to extend their winning streak and strengthen their position in the group stage. Both sides currently have six points after two consecutive victories.

The probable lineup against Fiorentina includes Zentner, Hanche-Olsen, Potulski, Kohr, Widmer, Maloney, Kai, Sano, Kawasaki, Bobzien, Weiper, and Böving. This suggests that several regular starters will be given a break to ensure they are fresh for the Sunday match. The coach outlet's strategy is to balance the need for points in the Europa Conference League with the importance of the upcoming domestic fixture.

With both teams level on six points, the match against Fiorentina is crucial for Mainz to maintain their momentum and secure a third win. By resting players, Henriksen is demonstrating his focus on the upcoming Rhine-Main derby while still aiming to secure a positive result in the Europa Conference League.
