With the current performance, we see from Leverkusen this season with Xabi Alonso, I think there is a high chance for this coach to win the game they are going to have in the next week against Mainz.
However the rates are a bit low for Leverkusen, obviously many people are given more chances to Leverkusen for this game.

Mainz currently sitting 18th on the table, having no hope of bouncing back because they started the season in poor form. Secondly, Mainz hosting Bayer Leverkusen at the OPEL Arena, the relegation side have absolutely no business in dealing with elite side because their chances of winning are minimal and slimed, I doubt if they will be able to net a goal against Bayer Leverkusen. Xabi Alonso have earned his respect at BayArena, he's in full action and have enough objectives to complete for his team. His presence have given improvement for the club, Bayer Leverkusen are ranked second on Bundesliga table, they are fierce and ready to win forthcoming games.

Seriously, Bayer Leverkusen has started this season very strong, and their mentality of winning matches nowadays is increasing, so even in their next match against Mainz, I am expecting them to win the match with even less effort because Mainz have been performing poorly, so with that, I don't think Mainz will have a way of winning the match. Mainz have been tough opponents to Bayer Leverkusen over the past few seasons, but currently I can't say they will be as tough as other seasons.

If teams are playing their home games, they look so strong. I should have said that Mainz may be strong and try their best to fight Leverkusen with all efforts, but with their matches watched this season, I don't have the confidence to say that Mainz will surprise us in any way to win the game, but I can't deny that they will not net. But their winning chances are, let's say, 30%, according to my own view, but let's see what happens at week end.

the Leverkusen vs Mainz match should be a fairly easy match for Leverkusen because so far Leverkusen has appeared impressive and its performance is improving, but don't be arrogant just yet, even though Mainz is in a bad condition, it is not impossible that Mainz will be able to break Leverkusen's defense because in their last match Mainz was able to beat Leverkusen at Leverkusen's home ground with a narrow score so it is not impossible that Mainz will win it again and Mainz will use all their energy and try hard to be able to face Leverkusen later.
Even so, I still support Leverkusen in this match because Leverkusen is able to perform better than last season and Xabi Alonso will not let Mainz embarrass him this time and will not let Leverkusen lose points in this match so that Leverkusen will remain at the top the standings.
