On Saturday afternoon, Mainz and Bayer Leverkusen go head-to-head at the MEWA Arena, as the home side looks to continue their strong start to the Bundesliga campaign.
Mainz
Bo Svensson’s team have made a promising start to the new Bundesliga campaign, picking up seven points from their opening three league matches of the season.
Die Nullfunfer have recorded victories against Bochum and Augsburg, with a 0-0 draw against Union Berlin sandwiched in-between. The 2-1 win over Augsburg last time out means that Mainz are unbeaten in six Bundesliga games dating back to last season.
The home side's prolific attack has been a key to their recent good results in the Bundesliga, as they have scored at least two goals in five of their last six league games.
Mainz are unbeaten in five league games on home soil and have also suffered just one home defeat in their last 11 outings in the German top-flight.
Bayer Leverkusen
Die Werkself have made a woeful start to the new Bundesliga campaign, suffering three straight defeats against Dortmund, Augsburg and Hoffenheim.
Gerardo Seoane’s team has had problems at both ends of the pitch. However, it seems finding the net has been difficult in recent matches, as the visitors have scored just once in the Bundesliga this season.
Their poor results have seen Bayer unexpected fall into the relegation zone. Their results will need to improve quickly if they are to rise back up into the European spots.
Bayer Leverkusen’s recent away record has been inconsistent, as they have won just three of their last seven away games in the Bundesliga. However, a 1-0 defeat at Dortmund ended a four-game unbeaten run on their travels for the visitors.
What does Forebet predict?
Forebet predicts that Mainz will add to Bayer Leverkusen’s woes by recording a victory in a low-scoring encounter.
