Bundesliga Preview

It promises to be an exciting race for the European spots in the Bundesliga between now and the end of the season, with a number of teams involved. Gladbach will be one of the sides looking to get involved in the battle, but they currently sit eighth overall. They have ground to make up in the top six, as they are currently nine points off sixth-placed Eintracht Frankfurt. 

They come into this game in very inconsistent form, as they have picked up just two wins from their previous five matches. Over that period, they have also suffered two defeats. However, they should be extremely confident after picking up a well-deserved win over Bayern Munich in their previous fixture. The points were won with just six minutes remaining at Marcus Thuram fired home the winner. 

Mainz should also be extremely confident coming into this game in the Bundesliga, as they have won each of their previous two. They have also won three of their last four in the German top-flight. Mainz could move up to seventh in the standings with victory on Friday evening, with Gladbach sitting just a place above the hosts. 

Mainz were in fine form in their previous game, as they landed a dramatic 3-2 win on the road against Bayer Leverkusen. Anthony Caci and Leandro Barreiro scored in the first half, before the winning goal in the match was netted from the penalty spot with just eight minutes remaining by Marcus Ingvartsen. 

Mainz vs Borussia Monchengladbach Head to Head

Mainz has gone four matches without defeat against Gladbach in the Bundesliga. They have won twice during that period, but both successes were recorded on the road. That includes a 1-0 win in the previous meeting between the sides this season. This exact fixture last season ended in a 1-1 draw.

Mainz vs Borussia Monchengladbach Prediction

Gladbach’s poor record in this fixture does present some value in the betting. Under 2.5 goals looks a solid bet, as this would have been a winning selection in each of the previous three meetings. However, we like Mainz to get the win.
