Mainz will want to continue from where they left off last time out with a 1-4 Bundesliga victory versus VfL Bochum.

In that match, Mainz had 55% possession and 22 attempts at goal with 8 of them on target. For Mainz, the goalscorers were Nadiem Amiri (45'), Philipp Mwene (53'), Jonathan Burkardt (73') and Paul Nebel (93'). For their opponents, Bochum had 11 shots on goal with 6 of them on target. Gerrit Holtmann (84') was the scorer for VfL Bochum.

It has not been often in recent times that Mainz haven’t conceded. The reality is that Mainz have failed to prevent opponents from scoring in 6 of their previous 6 matches, giving up 10 goals along the way.

Analysis of their past results shows that Mainz:

  • are winless against Bayer Leverkusen in their last 3 league games.
  • are unbeaten in their previous 12 home league matches. Visiting teams have certainly not had an easy time of it here.
  • are without a home win in the past 4 league matches. Their supporters are understandably frustrated.

From our viewpoint, Leverkusen could decide to elect for a 3-4-2-1 formation, starting Lukas Hradecky, Edmond Tapsoba, Jonathan Tah, Piero Hincapie, Nathan Tella, Exequiel Palacios, Aleix Garcia, Alejandro Grimaldo, Jonas Hofmann, Florian Wirtz and Patrik Schick.

💭 Prediction

It certainly seems that Bayer Leverkusen will be up against it to be scoring even one goal against a Mainz side who look set to get the goals that they need to set up a big win here.
