May is always one of the most dramatic months in the European football calendar. It’s when domestic titles are won and lost, European trophies are lifted, and clubs battle in the last rounds of league matches to finish in European competition places or save themselves from relegation. Put simply, these are some of the most exciting matches of the season and we can take you there!
Bundesliga big clash!
Bayer Leverkusen lifted the Bundesliga trophy in dramatic style this year. While Bayern Munich are leading the way this year, Bayer will chase them all the way.
See them in action as they visit Mainz at their impressive Mewa Arena. Mainz are the provincial city club who continue to compete well in the Bundesliga and are currently on the verge of winning a Champions League spot themselves. Mainz is a charming city in which to spend a weekend, reached via a direct train from Frankfurt Airport.
