Union Berlin vs Mainz Prediction & Betting tips
The past soccer weekend in the Bundesliga was quite impressive. Some teams will quickly want to forget the recent weekend. These include FSV Mainz 05 and 1. FC Union Berlin.
While the FSV was literally broken down into its “Mainzelteile” in the home game against the Leipzig team, the Berlin iron team suffered a severe derby defeat against city rival Hertha BSC. During the week, the match between the two red and white losers is coming up. As can be seen from the odds comparison on a betting basis, Union Berlin versus Mainz starts according to odds as an easy favorite.
According to the latest presentation from Mainz, this assessment of bookmakers is definitely to be supported. The defeat last weekend partially limited the Red and Whites’ refusal to work. In the entire first half, the Mainz team had no attempt to shoot.
For Union Berlin, the city derby against Hertha BSC did not go particularly well either. For a long time, the old lady’s iron was clearly inferior. The result of the derby was – even in height – perfectly fine. In contrast to the Mainzer Union Berlin had almost two days more regeneration time. An advantage that reaffirms the role of favorites of the Iron.
Further tips and analyzes for the 28th matchday in the 1st Bundesliga can be found in the Betting Tips section of the Bundesliga.
Union Berlin:
The lead of the Iron on the relegation places in the Bundesliga continues to shrink. In the meantime, the red and whites from Berlin are only six points apart from a relegation place. To stop the downward trend, three points are almost mandatory on Wednesday evening. After all, there have been three defeats in the last three Bundesliga games.
With the home bankruptcy against Bayern Munich, Union Berlin has come out of the two-month mandatory break. While the 0: 2 against the German record champions was still manageable, the latest result could not be nicely talked about. The Iron was clearly subject to the city rival from Berlin. Hertha BSC celebrated a comfortable 4-0 derby win over 1. FC Union Berlin.
The red-whites were far too harmless for long stretches. Dangerous offensive actions by the guests were searched in vain. There were seven attempts by Union Berlin throughout the game, but not a single shot went to the goal of the blue and white hosts. However, coach Urs Fischer remains optimistic and hopes to remain in the class in the remaining seven games.
The Köpenicker scored over half of the points this season in front of their home crowd. The team of Urs Fischer hardly finds it convenient that the home games are played without spectators. How important the home advantage can be – especially for smaller teams – was explained in detail in the betting base guide to the home advantage.
Nothing has changed at the Iron Hospital. With Becker, Gogia and Dehl three players are still missing due to injury. Keven Schlotterbeck will be available again on Tuesday evening after his latest ban. The 23-year-old central defender of the red and white had missed the derby due to a yellow card suspension, but is now back in the squad.
Mainz:
FSV Mainz 05 is still in free fall. Last weekend the red and whites were shown in Leipzig according to all the rules of art. In some cases, the idea of table 15 limited. the Bundesliga of refusing to work. The FSV Mainz 05 had not attempted a single shot in the entire first half.
There are still seven game days until the end of the season. Should FSV Mainz 05 slip into a form crisis in the end of the season, it would probably only be a matter of time before the red and white arrive in the table cellar. On Wednesday evening the duel between Union Berlin vs. Mainz doesn’t really do much for a forecast on the guests.
In order to take points from the capital with them, the Mainz team will have to improve their defensive behavior. If there is no point gain, it cannot be ruled out that the competition will continue to catch up in the relegation battle. The rest of the Red-Whites program faces some difficult hurdles. Including away games against Frankfurt, Dortmund and Leverkusen.
With 60 goals conceded, Mainz is currently the weakest defense in the Bundesliga. It is quite possible that this bad negative trend will continue in the An der Alten Försterei stadium. Achim Beierlorzer will largely be able to draw on the full on Wednesday evening. Only the long-term injured Robin Zentner will be missing.
