Prediction published on 21/04/2023, 02:03  by Daniel Ngulu in Bundesliga Predictions

It hasn’t been a great season for Bayern Munich so far, and as the German giants travel to Mainz, they now have just the Bundesliga to fight for. Bayern will be seeking to build on their two-point advantage at the top of the league while Mainz are seeking three points that could lead them to the European football slots. Hosts Mainz will offer Bayern a tough outing, coming into this game undefeated in their last nine matches. However, they have just one win in their last five matches, and that win presents their only clean sheet in the last five matches as well. In the other four, both teams have scored. In each of their last 10 matches, Mainz have managed to score; the last time they failed to, it was against Bayern Munich in a 4-0 loss at home. As Bayern Munich returns to this game, their third face-off of the season, they will find Mainz on a five-game unbeaten run at home with three wins in that period.

Bayern Munich were eliminated from the Champions League in their last game, extending the turmoil that has been at the club in recent months. They were earlier eliminated from the German Cup, and are still in transition following changes in management after Julian Nagelsmann was sacked. While Thomas Tuchel was expected to immediately steady the Bayern ship, things are yet to settle after the former Chelsea manager’s arrival. A recent spat between Sadio Mane and Leroy Sane further muddied things at the Bavarians’ stable and the effect of all these has been spotted on the pitch. Bayern have one win in their last five matches. The win, a 1-0 victory at Freiburg also stands out as their only clean sheet in the five matches, and both teams have scored in three of Bayern’s last five matches. They’ve suffered three losses in their last five away matches.
