An Exciting Bundesliga Showdown at MEWA Arena
Key Stats
– Frankfurt have a 3-match winning advantage in their last six encounters against Mainz.
– Both teams have been involved in high scoring matches recently, with their games seeing three or more goals.
As the Bundesliga unfolds its enthralling football narratives, Mainz 05 prepares to face Eintracht Frankfurt at the magnificent MEWA Arena this Sunday. The match is poised to be riveting as both teams look to make their mark early in the season.
Mainz 05, under the stewardship of Bo Svensson, currently sits in a precarious 16th position without any points on the board. Their opponents, Dino Toppmoeller’s Eintracht Frankfurt, are comfortably in the 8th spot with a total of three points. This 3-point chasm might not seem vast now, but as the league progresses, every point counts.
Recent Form: A Tale of Two Teams
Mainz 05 are eager to leave behind their torrid start, having been bested by Union Berlin, and seek to register their first points against Frankfurt.

In stark contrast, Eintracht Frankfurt have started on the right foot, besting Darmstadt in their opening fixture.
Historical Match-Ups
In the annals of football history, the fixture between these two sides has always been closely contested. Out of 36 past encounters, Frankfurt have emerged victorious 12 times, narrowly edging out Mainz’s 10 wins, with 14 fixtures ending in a stalemate. Especially noteworthy is Frankfurt’s recent dominance, as they hold a 3-match winning advantage in the last six bouts.
Diving Deeper into the Stats
Mainz 05’s previous encounter against Union Berlin was a bitter pill to swallow. Despite possessing the ball for nearly half the game, they conceded four goals, ending the match at 1-4. The silver lining? Their offence did manage to pierce through Berlin’s defence 11 times, a statistic they’ll be eager to build upon.
On the other hand, Frankfurt, fresh from their victory against Darmstadt, will come into this match brimming with confidence. Dominating ball possession at 65% and limiting Darmstadt to just 11 shots, Frankfurt will hope to replicate such a performance.
Key Players to Watch
Mainz 05: Bo Svensson will heavily rely on the likes of Anthony Caci and Danny da Costa, both possessing a BettingTips4You Expert Rating of 7.20, and forwards like Brajan Gruda to spark some magic.
Eintracht Frankfurt: Philipp Max leads the charts for Frankfurt with an impressive BettingTips4You Expert Rating of 7.60. With a forward like Mario Götze and the latest goal scorer Randal Kolo Muani, Frankfurt boasts a formidable lineup.
Predictions
1. The Outcome: Given the recent form and statistics, our prediction leans towards a ‘Both Teams to Score’ outcome. Mainz have struggled defensively, but their attack has shown potential, while Frankfurt have displayed a balanced approach in their matches.
2. Scoreline: Based on recent performances and the attacking nature of both sides, we predict a 3-2 victory in favour of Eintracht Frankfurt.
3. Goal Scorer: Looking at the form and the statistics, Randal Kolo Muani of Eintracht Frankfurt stands out as the most likely player to find the net. An optional first goalscorer prediction would be Anthony Caci from Mainz 05, given his current form.
