Wolfsburg vs 1 Fsv Mainz 05 Prediction & Betting Tips - Bundesliga
by Nella Wagah in Bundesliga Predictions
Mainz will be looking to complete their Bundesliga survival push by avoiding defeat at Wolfsburg on Saturday. While 12th placed Wolfsburg are already safe, Mainz, in 15th spot with 32 points remain in the chase for safety. The hosts start this game in 12th place on 37 points. A place in Europe may be too far for them but mathematically, a top-half finish is achievable. Their recent rise was checked by former champions Bayern Munich in the last game, as they suffered a 2-0 loss. That result denied Wolfsburg a fourth straight win and was the second time in eight matches that they failed to score. Finishing their season with a home game will be very welcome though. Wolfsburg won their last two home matches, and will be confident coming here, backed by their fans. The Volkswagen Arena hasn’t really been a fortress, returning only seven wins of their 17 matches there this season. However, after beating Darmstadt and Bochum in the last two matches, they’ll have reason to be optimistic.
One factor that should worry Mainz coming here is their form against Wolfsburg in recent times. They haven't beaten their hosts in the last four meetings, losing three. However, after three heavy losses, they managed to fight back for a 1-1 draw in the reverse fixture. The visitors will feel they have what it takes to build on that here. In recent times they’ve been on a good run and nothing captures that more than their 3-0 win over Dortmund last time out. It could be argued Dortmund had nothing to lose, or gain from the game, but Mainz still played well and did the needful. Here they come, sitting just above the relegation playoff spot. At least they know automatic relegation isn’t their worry but they should strive to at least match Union Berlin’s result. The win over Dortmund placed Mainz two points ahead of Union Berlin. While a win or a draw should be enough for survival, Mainz will be concerned that none of their six wins in the league came on away soil. Actually, in their 18 away matches in all competitions, Mainz managed just one win. That win dates back to August, in the DFB Pokal.
