Football – Germany – Bundesliga Betting Tips

Friday night brings us a bottom half clash in the German Bundesliga between hosts, Hertha Berlin, and visitors, Mainz, with the latter teetering on the edges of the relegation zone.

Hertha Berlin ended a run of four league matches without a win last weekend when they registered a 2-0 win away at Bayer Leverkusen, but having drawn three of their previous four matches, the hosts have actually suffered just one defeat from their last eight in the league.

That defeat came in a 1-0 loss away at Stuttgart, but home form has picked up in recent weeks as they’ve beaten Hannover 3-1 along with taking points off third placed Borussia Dortmund and eighth placed Hoffenheim in 1-1 draws, amidst an overall record of  4-4-3  17/16 at their Olympiastadion Berlin.

Mainz currently occupy the relegation play-off spot in the German top flight after having lost four of their last five with defeats against Hannover, Bayer Leverkusen, Bayern Munich and Hoffenheim, with their only respite coming in a 3-2 home win over Stuttgart.

However, success has been very limited for the visitors as they’ve recorded just one league win from their last 10 outings, and along with fellow strugglers and 14th placed Stuttgart, they’re the only teams yet to register an away win in the Bundesliga so far this season.

Mainz’s away record reads a miserable looking  0-4-7 11/24 and they’ve actually gone an extremely lean period of time without success on their travels as they’ve now gone 17 matches without a win on the road in the German top flight.

This should therefore be a straightforward home win here.
