Mainz 05 - Borussia M'gladbach predictions

Mainz 05 are definitely more likely to win, though all three possible results are quite reasonable to expect. This makes it hard to make reliable betting predictions when this match is concerned, though we may find some betting value.

Borussia M'gladbach are not a team that backs down from a challenge and we expect them to give their best in an effort to claim a victory in this match.

Mainz’s defeat in the previous round was to be expected, frankly. They played as visitors against a considerably stronger team - Freiburg . They were already trailing behind during half-time, and things only went down from there on, resulting in a compelling 4:0 defeat.

Borussia M'Gladbach’s previous Bundesliga match ended with a home draw against RB Leipzig. The 0:0 outcome was better for Borussia M'Gladbach than for their opponents, but fans are hoping for more decisive results in round 0.

A high concessions rate is not a good look to have, and Mainz have been on a downward spiral when it comes to their defensive performance. With 5 goals conceded over their past 3 games, there’s definite room for improvement.

You may want to look at Borussia M'Gladbach as good candidates for markets like BTTS bets or Over 5 Goals. They have more than 5 goals on record from their previous 3 games alone.

In terms of head-to-head stats, the closest point of reference right now is from last season when Mainz 05 walked away with a decisive victory. This is an entirely new campaign but most top online bookies are still expecting the match to end in their favour.

This Friday, both teams will have a full roster available to them, thanks to the absence of injuries or suspensions.

We can say with no small amount of confidence that this match will confirm the Over 2.5 Goals market. Both teams fit the bill for such a wager perfectly, so this is a very safe bet, offered at the odds of 1.70 at Pncl.
