Heidenheim - Mainz 05 predictions

The visitors understand the difficulty of the task at hand. To beat Heidenheim on their own turf would be a major feat, and it is always a tough challenge.

The visitors are not walking into an easy match by any means, but they should be able to come out on top. Winning this match will be a welcome boost to their rankings, though such an outcome is priced at 2.34.

The previous round of the Bundesliga saw Heidenheim secure a rather straightforward victory. Playing as the away team in a matchup with Darmstadt 98, they broke the tie with a goal in the second half, securing the 0:1 victory.

Mainz 05 can’t be too happy with their latest Bundesliga result. They were the slightly stronger team in that matchup against Köln and took the lead as expected. Unfortunately, the lead crumbled away in the second half, resulting in a 1:1 draw.

Mainz’s recent performance as visitors has been marked by a lot of conceded goals – 9 in their previous 3 away games.

Mainz lost their home game to Heidenheim earlier in the season, which was quite an upset at the time. They’re still considered the favourites in this matchup, though, and will be looking to redeem themselves.

Though the visitors are favourites here, it’s important to note they’ll be playing without Karim Onisiwo, Maxim Leitsch, Stefan Bell, Jessic Ngankam due to injury. On the flip side, the hosts will also be several players short – namely, Marnon Busch, Lennard Maloney, Thomas Keller, Elidon Qenaj, Adrian Beck have also reported injuries.

The risks involved in backing a BTTS bet for this match are minimal. Both Heidenheim and Mainz 05 have a history of confirming the market so the 1.85 odds offered at 1xbet is too good to pass up.
