Mainz vs Eintracht Frankfurt Live Stats & Betting Odds
Mainz Prediction – Can Mainz pull away from relegation zone?
Coming into this encounter on the back of a 5-1 win away from home at Hoffenheim, Monday night’s hosts, Mainz, will have received a big boost ahead of this upcoming clash against Eintracht Frankfurt as they look to register back-to-back wins in the German top flight.
That win at Hoffenheim halted Mainz’s losing streak which had seen the hosts suffer back-to-back defeats away at RB Leipzig 8-0 and a disappointing 3-2 loss at home to Union Berlin, so returning to familiar surroundings on Monday night also gives Mainz a decent chance of getting something out of this clash.
Inconsistent results on home turf at their OPEL ARENA though don’t appeal for Mainz as outright winners here as their home record of 2-0-3 8/9 indicates which includes wins against Hertha Berlin and Cologne, but have been offset by defeats to Borussia Moenchengladbach, Wolfsburg and Union Berlin.
However, Mainz have lost just 3 of their last 9 matches at home in the Bundesliga in recent times and they also hold a good record against Eintracht Frankfurt at home as they’re unbeaten in the previous 15 meetings at home against their Monday night’s opponents.
Eintracht Frankfurt Prediction – Can Frankfurt build on Arsenal win?
The visitors will have also been boosted by their recent 2-1 win away from home at Premier League side, Arsenal, in last week’s Europa League which proved to be the final nail in Unai Emery’s coffin as manager of The Gunners, and Eintracht Frankfurt will be hoping they too can record back-to-back wins on Monday night.
However, on the domestic front Eintracht Frankfurt have lost their last two matches on the trot in the German top flight with losses to Freiburg and Wolfsburg and with just 3 wins out of their last 9 matches overall in the Bundesliga, Frankfurt are by far from guaranteed all three points here.
This appears even more so when looking at Eintracht’s results away from home as the visitors have lost 6 of their last 7 matches on their travels, a record which extends back into the latter stages of last season.
This season, Eintracht possess a poor away record of 1-0-4 6/10 which includes defeats at RB Leipzig, Augsburg, Borussia Moenchengladbach and Freiburg and they’ve managed just 4 wins from their last 15 away matches.
Key-Facts – Mainz vs Eintracht Frankfurt
- Mainz have lost just 3 of their last 9 matches at home in the Bundesliga
- Eintracht Frankfurt have lost 6 of their last 7 matches on their travels
- Mainz are unbeaten in the previous 15 meetings at home v Eintracht Frankfurt
Betting Tips Verdict
Both teams head into this clash on the back of wins but Mainz perhaps have the edge here, given Eintracht Frankfurt’s poor away form.
