The match

It will be a massive relegation six-pointer battle at Stadion An der Alten Försterei, as Union Berlin play host to Mainz 05. The hosts start this round 13th in the standings with 30 points, while the visitors are 15th with 27 points.

Union have packed a punch for the most part of the season, but the recent results have been up against them. A 4-0 thrashing at the hands of derby rivals Hertha over the weekend has made it three losses in a row. Although they haven’t lost four in a row since early October 2019, the hosts will be wary of their dwindling fortunes. Finding the back of the net remains a concern with Union scoring just 32 goals so far, which is the fourth-lowest aggregate this term. Even at home, they are winless in three Bundesliga matches, drawing one and losing two. Thankfully, though, Union have enjoyed playing at home this season and 19 of their 30 season points have come here.

Mainz remain just three points above the bottom three and are not yet out of the danger. They were thrashed 5-0 by RB Leipzig on Sunday, although that is a minor aberration in their recent results. Nine of their 27 Bundesliga season points have come in their last seven matches, where they have won two, drawn three and lost two. They are only marginally ahead of their hosts in terms of goals scored, but Mainz have a problem aplenty at the back. With 60 goals conceded, Mainz have the worst defensive record of the league at this stage. However, they have remained a stubborn unit on the road, winning three of their last seven Bundesliga road trips.

Key Statistics

  • Union Berlin have seen over 2.5 total match goals scored in five of their last six Bundesliga matches.
  • Union Berlin have lost their last three Bundesliga matches.
  • Mainz 05 have seen over 2.5 total match goals scored in their last eight Bundesliga away matches.
  • Mainz 05 have avoided defeat in five of their last seven Bundesliga matches.

The bet of our experts

Union Berlin have seen their momentum stalled with just one point in their last four Bundesliga matches. This sequence has seen them leak goals aplenty, conceding at least twice in each of those. Mainz 05 were thrashed by Leipzig in their most recent match, but they remain a team on the rise. With nine of their 27 season points coming in their last seven Bundesliga matches, Mainz look good for a quick bounce back. Nevertheless, this being a relegation six-pointer battle, we expect both teams to put their best effort. We are backing the match to produce a high scorer, and also backing Mainz on the double chance market.
