Can a matchday be more beautiful than with a derby? From Mainz and Frankfurter view probably not, because on Friday the FSV and Eintracht with the Rhein-Main-Derby open the tenth day in the German Oberhaus.

Mainz lost four victories in the first five games, with only one remaining in the remaining four games. That was lost last weekend, as the zero-seeded at Schalke earned with 0: 2. Victory was also celebrated at Mainz, namely three in number next to another draw. In the table, this is currently 12th place with ten points and 10-15 goals. Mainz scored nine of the ten points so far in the Opel Arena. There were also two successive victories in a 1: 0 match against Hertha and 3: 2 against the HSV. If you add the game from the second round of the DFB-Pokal on Tuesday, Mainz have even won the last three competitive games in the home stadium.
However, Mainz played a difficult game against a strong second division from Kiel. Twice the Mainz team, Holstein Kiel twice from the penalty spot. Daniel Brosinski broke his team in the 101st minute. The match would certainly have cost Kraft, in addition, goalkeeper Rene Adler injured and will probably fail on Friday.

For three games in the Bundesliga, Frankfurt undefeated and celebrated the last minute victories against Stuttgart, when Sebastian Haller marked the victory in the third minute of stoppage time and in Hannover, when Ante Rebic in the 89th minute the 2: 1 worried. Last weekend the Hessen Borussia Dortmund scored a point. In the home game, Frankfurt were not quite an hour back with 0: 2 back, but could compensate this residue relatively quickly with a double pack within four minutes. In an open match, both teams had the chance to score third, while Dortmund had the better possibilities.
