Mainz 05 RB Leipzig betting prediction


Betting suggestion:

This confrontation tends to be busy, considering that it faces two teams that need the victory, the home team to try to move away from the relegation zone and the away one to avoid the bad phase and continues in the fight for a place in the Europa League, so the teams should take a more offensive posture. In addition, Mainz has a fragile defense that has conceded goals in 6 of the last eight Bundesliga matches and is the third most leaked defense in the competition, while RB Leipzig has dropped a lot of defensive performance and conceded 10 goals in the last three rounds. In view of these factors, we believe in an open game, with good offensive volume on both sides and both teams should score goals.

Preview
Mainz 05 and RB Leipzig face at Coface Arena, in a match for the 32th round of the Bundesliga. In the last head‑to‑head for this edition of the league, played on 09‑12‑2017, these teams have tied (2‑2). In 3 head‑to‑heads in the last 3 years, the away team won 2 and tied 1. Mainz 05 registers significant differences between home and away results, so the home/away factor is worth special attention.

Analysis Mainz 05

The home team is currently in the 15th position of the league, with 30 points won, after 7 wins, 9 draws and 15 losses. In the penultimate match, they won in a home match against Freiburg, by (2‑0). In the last match, they lost in an away match against Augsburg, by (2‑0). This is a team that is often stronger at home, with the help of its supporters, so they usually make good use of the home advantage, since in the last 30 matches they register 1 win, 5 draws and 9 losses in away matches; against 5 wins, 4 draws and 6 losses at their stadium. In the last 10 home league matches Mainz 05 has a record of 3 wins, 3 draws and 4 losses, so they have won 12 points out of 30 possible. 10 of their last 15 matches for this competition have ended with Under 2,5 goals, so there is a tendency for few goals in their home matches. In 31 matches for this competition, they have conceded the first goal 21 times and have only turned the score around in 2.

Mainz dropped a lot of income, has won just 1 of its last eight games and needs an urgent recovery as it is falling in the standings and is the first team outside the relegation zone. The biggest problem has been its defensive inefficiency, having conceded 49 goals and is the third most leaked defense of the competition, but the attack has also left a lot to be desired, is the sixth worst with 32 goals scored, so much so that it scored only 3 goals in the last 7 rounds, having not score a single goal in 5 of them. Playing at home like Sunday's clash, Mainz has won only 1 of its last 5 matches and the most worrying thing is that it did not score goals in 3 of these matches, so much so that it is the fourth team that has scored the least goals, with only 18 goals in 15 games. For the confrontation with RB Leipzig, coach Sandro Schwarz has no problems in the team that has been playing in the last rounds and should repeat the lineup of the last games.

Confirmed Lineup: René Adler, Daniel Brosinski, Abdou Diallo, Stefan Bell, Alexander Hack, Jean-Philippe Gbamin, Ridle Baku, Nigel de Jong, Levin Öztunali, Pablo De Blasis, Yoshinori Muto.
Coach: B. Henriksen.

Analysis Leipzig

The away team is currently in the 6th position of the league, with 47 points won, after 13 wins, 8 draws and 10 losses. In the penultimate match, they tied in an away match against Werder Bremen, by (1‑1). In the last match, they lost in a home match against Hoffenheim, by (2‑5). This is a team that usually maintains its competitive level in home and away matches, since in the last 30 matches they register 4 wins, 5 draws and 6 losses in away matches, with 21 goals scored and 27 conceded; against 6 wins, 3 draws and 6 losses at their stadium, with 23 goals scored and 25 conceded. In the last 10 away league matches RB Leipzig has a record of 2 wins, 4 draws and 4 losses, so they have won 10 points out of 30 possible. Defensive consistency hasn’t been their best feature, as they have conceded goals in 8 of the last 10 matches, but their offense has scored consistently, as they have scored goals in 9 of the last 10 matches for this competition. In 31 matches for this competition, they have conceded the first goal 12 times but have turned the score around in 4.

RB Leipzig has not won for 3 rounds in which it has lost 2 and drawn 1 and needs to find the best football, as it has its vacancy for the next Europa League threatened, as the two teams below in the standings have a maximum difference of 3 points. The team has dropped scarcely of income in defensive terms, so much that it has suffered 10 goals in the last 3 games, leaving many spaces to the opponents and now it is among the 6 worst defenses of the competition, something that needs to be corrected for this final stretch of competition. 
Playing away from home, like Sunday's match, RB Leipzig has lost only 1 of its last 5 games where it has also added 2 wins and 2 draws and it is worth noting that it scored goals in 6 of the last 7 away matches, but it is worth mentioning that it did not concede goals in only 3 of its 15 away games for Bundesliga, showing again its defensive problems. 
For the clash with Mainz, coach Hassenhutll will not be able to rely on Forsberg for suspension.

Confirmed Lineup: Péter Gulácsi, Lukas Klostermann, Willi Orbán, Dayot Upamecano, Stefan Ilsanker, Naby Keïta, Diego Demme, Kevin Kampl, Ademola Lookman, Timo Werner, Yussuf Poulsen.
Coach: D. Tedesco.
