Mainz vs Eintracht Frankfurt Prediction & Betting tips
The AHA rule (distance, hygiene, everyday mask) is currently being promoted urgently throughout Germany. At FSV Mainz 05, however, hopes rest on SHS in the future. What is meant is the new athletic leadership trio Svensson, Heidel and Schmidt, which should save the Rheinhessen Bundesliga club from going into the second division. The Danish coach Bo Svensson will make his debut next Saturday.
Eintracht from the neighboring metropolis on the Main is a guest in the Opel Arena. Although in the past coach changes led to a successful turnaround in the past, the best bookmakers do not believe in a sudden turnaround in the zero five before the Rhein-Main derby. Between Mainz and Frankfurt, the odds indicate that the SGE is a very strong favorite.
In terms of results, this assessment is not really surprising, because while the FSV has been waiting for a win again for six Bundesliga games and is five points behind the saving bank, the form curve of the Hütter-Elf recently showed up. Eintracht recorded a proud seven points from the last three matches and want to further shorten the gap to the European Cup places at the weekend.
In view of the fact that the Eagle Bearers do not seem as stable abroad as they do at home and the home side will certainly be particularly motivated in the first game under the new coach, we dare the prognosis for the game Mainz against Frankfurt that the tip on the Home win there is more value hidden than in a potential bet on the guest who, by the way, has never been able to win in the Bundesliga in the carnival stronghold.
Mainz :
FSV Mainz 05 has understood the seriousness of the situation. Because the Rheinhessen have just played a meager six points after 14 games and have only been able to celebrate a single triple since the beginning of the season in mid-September, the responsible decision-makers pulled the rip cord in December, only dissolved the contract with sports director Rouven Schröder and left Finally, the interim term of office of Jan-Moritz Lichte ends.
The turnaround is to be initiated with the former successful manager Christian Heidel – the experienced Martin Schmidt, who is to act in the new position as sports director – and Bo Svensson as the successor to the head coach position. Although the latest results indicate a level of uncertainty, the fresh and popular personalities in the carnival stronghold have sparked a certain optimism.
The exchange in the sporting management level alone is therefore a good argument to check the odds on the home win on Saturday between Mainz and Frankfurt. It should also be positively stated that the FSV only lost six out of 24 Bundesliga games against the SGE and thus fewer in percentage than any other league competitor.
Even if the zero fives have been looking for their form in the home Opel Arena for many months and have only won two of the last 18 (!) Home games, only Gladbach, Stuttgart and Schalke in Mainz have been able to score more than one goal to mark. On Saturday we are again expecting a compact and, above all, passionately defending FSV team who, with the help of the new Svensson impulses and the self-confidence gained from the strong first half at Bayern, want to put an end to the persistent dry spell.
The 41-year-old coach, who was already under contract as a player as well as a youth coach with the Rheinhessen, can draw on almost unlimited resources. Only the long-term injured customer definitely fails. There is also a small question mark behind the goalkeeper position, where the young Dahmen could again replace the hundredweight.
Frankfurt :
Makoto Hasebe was a big topic at Eintracht Frankfurt during the week. The experienced Japanese will be 37 years old on January 18th and with his controlled, calm, but at the same time maximally effective style of play, he is still one of the top performers at the SGE. No wonder that coach Adi Hütter even brought another contract extension into play at a press conference during the week.
The fact that people in the German financial metropolis are currently also allowed to deal with alleged secondary war zones is primarily due to the fact that things are going well in terms of sport. Thanks to seven points from the last three games and only two defeats in the current season (four wins, eight draws), the Hessians have recently climbed to eighth place in the Bundesliga table. The Europa League ranks are in sight again.
From the point of view of the Eagle Bearers, it will be important in the coming weeks that Constance is part of their own achievements. If the Hütter protégés can regularly call up such strong performances as in the previous week in the not undeserved 2-1 home win against Leverkusen, then they must be expected in the fight for Europe. However, it cannot be ruled out that there will be setbacks again – especially abroad.
Part of the responsibility for this would certainly be the anything but solid defense that conceded 14 goals in seven matches (2-3-2) away from home. Coupled with the rather surprising statistics that the SGE is still waiting for the first away win in the Bundesliga at FSV, it is too risky for us to go ahead of the Rhein-Main-Derby Mainz vs. Frankfurt to dare a corresponding forecast on Silva and Co. Only Ragnar Ache fails. Rode returns after the ban has expired.
