Mainz vs Bayern Munich Prediction & Betting tips
Mainz 05 will have to work on Saturday afternoon. Bayern Munich, which started the new calendar year well, is the opponent of the club from Rhineland-Palatinate.
Mainz 05:
FSV Mainz 05 has not had a successful 2020 so far. Last Saturday, Die Nullfünfer also lost its second game of the second half of the season. The assignment was certainly not easy, with a away game against Borussia Mönchengladbach. A goal from Robin Quaison gave Mainz the lead, but coach Achim Beierlorzer’s team had to defend themselves. Eventually a well-deserved defeat was suffered in Mönchengladbach (3-1).
The situation on the ranking list is not too pleasant for Mainz. The team is in fifteenth place, with only a narrow lead on the relegation places. Mainz took on a defensive reinforcement this week. Jeffrey Bruma comes from VfL Wolfsburg on a rental basis, where he had no fixed base. Beierlorzer announced during the weekly press moment that a place in the base for Bruma is probably a little too early. Jeremiah St. Juste and Jean-Paul Boëtius normally start.
Bayern Munich:
FC Bayern Munich has started the new year with concentration. In the first half, the Münchnians in the Bundesliga did not always look sharp, which led to the necessary loss of points. Bayern has done good business in the hunt for a new league title in recent weeks. Van Hertha BSC won 0-4 and last weekend Der FCB was too strong for Schalke 04 in their own stadium 5-0. Some help from Schalke goalkeeper Marcus Schubert got some help, but without his mistakes Bayern have won.
Competitor RB Leipzig lost last week, leaving the gap with that team just one point. Next week Bayern could pass the team from Saxony. The two teams then face each other in Munich. Newcomer Alvaro Odriozola could make his debut on Saturday, although it would not be strange if coach Hansi Flick did not make many changes to his basic eleven.
