Bayer Leverkusen - Mainz 05 predictions

Kickoff starts at 20:30 on 14/01/2025 played @ BayArena

This is a fairly one-sided matchup in the hosts’ favour. While there may be a tiny chance of a draw or even an upset, we wouldn’t count on it. Bayer Leverkusen winning is by far the most likely outcome.

Though it may not be particularly attractive to punters, this match is at least easy to predict. Anything but a Home Win is probably wishful thinking for Mainz 05, whose victory has been priced at a hefty 6.71.

Bayer Leverkusen displayed solid form the last time we saw them play a Bundesliga match. They had plenty of reasons to feel optimistic going into that bout, but away games can be dangerous. Despite the disadvantage, though, they recorded an HT/FT win and earned 3 more points towards this season’s campaign.

Mainz 05 are coming on the back of a 2:0 victory in their most recent Bundesliga game. They were the hosts in that instance, though, and the matchup against Bochum was largely favourable as well. In other words – they performed as well as could be expected, but the triumph itself was nothing extraordinary.

A quick look at the recent trends reveals a solid record for Leverkusen, who have managed to score 5 times in their previous 3 matches. This means that markets like BTTS or Over 5 Goals are worth your attention.

Mainz don’t seem to have any issues in the goal-scoring department. Their most recent records show they’ve score more than 5 goals over the last 3 matches, so they’re on a bit of a positive trend already.

As far as the recent history of this matchup goes, the records show a decisive victory by Team from Leverkusen last season. They even secured a solid lead, which is part of the reason most bookies consider them to be the favourites in this matchup.

The visitors have to contend with several injuries. Silvan Widmer, Maxim Bora Dal, Moritz Jenz are the players that will be missing, which makes the Mainz 05 lineup somewhat weaker than usual. This is made far worse because they were considered undergods going in either way.

Based on both teams’ previous performances, an Over 2.5 Goals bet is very likely to win. The returns are somewhat limited at the odds of 1.55, but it’s still an incredibly safe bet.
