Xabi Alonso confirmed that Victor Boniface is nearing a return from injury, having missed two months due to a hamstring issue, but he is unlikely to face Mainz.
Leverkusen has thrived without Boniface, winning all six league matches without him, averaging 3.2 goals per game, highlighting Patrik Schick's impressive performance.
Alonso mentioned that while Adli is sidelined until late January, Boniface might return next week but will need adequate training time before rejoining the squad.
Leverkusen's recent form has placed them second in the league standings, trailing Bayern Munich by four points, with a busy schedule ahead that could test their resilience.
