Mainz vs Wolfsburg Bundesliga Prediction

The Mainz team belongs to the group of teams that will fight for permanence in the current edition of the Bundesliga and, for now, started the campaign well, taking 7 points in the four rounds already gone, with a record of 4 goals scored and only 3 suffered.

Defensive cohesion has even been the hallmark of this Mainz, which until now only lost once, was on Sunday at Bayer Leverkusen’s 0-1.

By then they had beaten Stuttgart (1-0) and Augsburg (2-1) and scored with Nürnberg (1-1). In the next round, they face Schalke 04 in Gelsenkirchen.

The list of absences for this match is currently made up of Berggreen, Adler, Latza and Hack. Note of reference to the fact that none of these four players have added any minute for Mainz in the championship in 2018/19.

Having struggled to the last by staying in the last edition of the German championship, Wolfsburg intends to make a much quieter walk in relation to that goal and intends to stay in the forefront of the table.
For now, things started well, Bruno Labbadia’s team are in fifth place in the league table with 7 points, just the same as Mainz, like Borussia Mönchengladbach.

The first defeat came on the last day, surprisingly, with Wolfsburg receiving and being beaten by Freiburg (1-3), having won Schalke 04 (2-1) and Bayer Leverkusen (3-1) and tied with Hertha Berlin (2-2).

For this meeting, Guilavogui, Azzaoui, Jung, Tisserand and Klaus are the casualties that are expected.

I start my thinking about this game with a curious die, worth what it’s worth, but that’s factual.

After a brief glance at H2H between the two teams, Wolfsburg have not beaten Mainz since 2014, which gives them a list of seven consecutive matches to be either Mainz’s victory (once) or the draw ( six times).

If we want to know the last time Wolfsburg won on Mainz, then we need to go back even further, until the 2010/11 season, having since played 14 games between them, half of them in the Mainz stadium.

Adding this slight curiosity to the fact that Mainz is showing a defensive solidity above what Wolfsburg has shown, to be a team that until now had not yet faced high-level teams in this championship – exception made to Leverkusen, who faced on the last round and even missed out – but come from two wins in two games at home, I think it will be very difficult for Wolfsburg to break the rooster that has lasted seven years and win this game. I see with good eyes the market of goals, so Wolfsburg has presented an attacking soccer and allows opponents to create some goal opportunities. I opt, therefore, in a 1X in “mix” with the over 1,5.

Betting Prediction: Draw or Mainz and over 1.5 goals
Odds: 1.78
