Mainz Team News

Mainz is in 15th place with 27 points. In 16th place, Bochum has the same number of points but has recently had much worse results than Mainz. In the last five matches, the players of Mainz increased the gas and won three victories and two draws, which gives them enough hope that they could survive in the Bundesliga this season.

In the last round, they visited Freiburg. The score at the end of the game was 1:1, and Mainz was a much better rival. It’s an absolute miracle that they dropped the win. Freiburg scored right at the start, in the sixth minute, and Jonathan Burkhart equalized for Mainz in the 40th minute. The visitors were much better in the second half but could not break through Freiburg’s defense.

They beat Hoffenheim at home before that. The visitors scored the first goal in the 19th minute, but that was all they scored during the match. Mainz quickly regained control, and from the 47th to the 88th minute, they scored four goals. It’s a miracle that the difference wasn’t even more significant by the end of the game.

They beat Darmstadt even more convincingly. At the end of that game, it was 4:0 for Mainz. It was 0:0 against Leipzig, and they also beat Bochum 2:0. Since the beginning of the season, Mainz has yet to have such a good streak in which they play excellent and solid football.

FC Koln Team News

FC Koln is in a worse situation. They have five points less than Mainz and a series of bad results behind them. After 30 games played, they have four wins and 23 losses. They are also the team that scores the fewest goals this season. So far, they have been accurate only 23 times.

In the last round, they lost to the only team with worse results than them. They hosted Darmstadt at their stadium and lost 2:0. They were better on the pitch and controlled possession better, but they made several big mistakes in defense and allowed Darmstadt’s forwards to score. The guests scored both goals in the second half.

They also lost 2:0 against Bayern, but that was a match in which they had no chance of success. They beat Bochum by taking advantage of this team’s slump in form. Ultimately, the result was 2:1 for Koln, whose players patiently built attacking positions. They managed to break through Bochum’s defense only in the 90′. Minutes, and then two minutes later. They drew 1:1 with Augsburg and lost 5:1 at home to Leipzig.

Mainz vs FC Koln Prediction

Last year, these two teams played equal football, but the end of the season brought a different balance of power. Mainz are in a flurry of good form; their confidence has grown due to several important victories, and they will do their best to continue that streak in front of their home crowd.

As for Koln, no one can predict what could help this team get off the bottom of the table in the last games.

Mainz will be the favorite in this match, and if the guests open up even a little, we can expect a lot of quality opportunities to score. We hope to see more than 2.5 goals in this match.
