Mainz will meet with the German Football League (DFL) on Monday to discuss the possibility of postponing next week's Bundesliga match against Augsburg.

"We will be in contact with the DFL from Monday to discuss the situation - also with regard to the next game," Mainz sporting director Christian Heidel told Bild.

Because of a COVID-19 outbreak in their squad, Mainz's game against Borussia Dortmund was postponed from today to March 16.

A total of 20 members of the Mainz squad, including 14 players, are currently self-isolating.

The sticking point is that Mainz will not have a goalkeeper available until Friday, just one day before the game against Augsburg, at the earliest.
