A local derby in Germany between Eintracht Frankfurt and Mainz will be staged on Saturday. Both teams are still chasing a finish in the top six, with Mainz able to move up to sixth in the standings if they are able to claim victory this weekend.
A huge game in the race or Europa League spots takes place in the Bundesliga this weekend, as Eintracht Frankfurt and Mainz clash. The advantage in the race for a European spot is currently with the visitors, as they sit two points higher in the current standings. However, they have struggled for wins in recent weeks, as they have gone two without a success in the Bundesliga.
Regardless, they remain just three points off the Europa League spots at this late stage of the season, which would be seen as a huge improvement based on last season’s performances. However, Mainz comes into this match after suffering two defeats in their previous two outings, while they have recorded just one win over their last five in the Bundesliga.
Eintracht Frankfurt’s form in the second half of the season has been extremely concerning. They were in the hunt for a Champions League spot when play resumed, but they now sit down in ninth in the standings. Their recent form shows their recent issues, as they have gone five without a success.
Over that period, they have suffered three defeats, including a loss in their previous match. Another defeat this weekend could see them holding onto a spot in the top half of the standings, as they sit just four clear of tenth-placed Borussia Monchengladbach.
Frankfurt comes into this showdown with an excellent recent record against Mainz. They have gone four without loss against their local rivals, but three matches over that period have ended in draws. Each of the last two have ended level, with both teams finding the net.
It is incredibly hard to separate these two sides this weekend, as neither have much momentum behind them. However, we are prepared to take a chance on Mainz, as they look for a first away win since June 2020 against their local rivals. But, both teams to score could be the safest play this weekend.
