Mainz Preview – Can Mainz pull away from relegation zone?
Sunday evening’s hosts, Mainz, possess a 4-point cushion over their visitors, Fortuna Dusseldorf, ahead of this important relegation ‘six-pointer’ clash down near the bottom of the German Bundesliga, but they’ll be looking to pull further away from the bottom three with a win here.
Recent results have produced a mixed bag of returns though for Mainz as they’ve recorded wins against Hertha Berlin and Paderborn but have also fallen to defeats against Bayern Munich and Wolfsburg as well.
Although Mainz possess a fairly ordinary looking home record which stands at 4-1-7 14/20, recent results on home turf at their OPEL ARENA have been encouraging as they’ve taken a point off Schalke in a 0-0 draw along with earning a vital three points with a 2-0 win over Paderborn last time out in their own backyard.
In addition, Mainz have won 5 of the last 7 meetings against Fortuna Dusseldorf.
Fortuna Dusseldorf Preview – Can Dusseldorf close gap on relegation rivals?
As mentioned earlier, Dusseldorf trail their Sunday evening’s hosts by a 4-point margin and currently occupy third from bottom in the Bundesliga and the relegation play-off spot prior to this upcoming crucial relegation ‘six-pointer’ at the OPEL ARENA.
The visitors have managed to earn just 1 win out of their last 7 matches overall in the German top flight and this poor sequence of results have contributed to their precarious league position having suffered defeats to Werder Bremen, Bayer Leverkusen and Borussia Moenchengladbach.
During this lean 7-match spell, Dusseldorf have picked up just 1 win which came in the form of a 2-0 win away from home at mid-table Freiburg but an overall away record of 2-3-7 13/26 suggests that the visitors could struggle to get a result here.
Dusseldorf have won just 1 of their last 11 away matches in the Bundesliga.
