In the 30th round of the German Bundesliga, a match will take place between Mainz and Wolfsburg. The encounter is scheduled for Saturday, April 19. The game is set to kick off at 15:30 Central European Time. I suggest betting on the game's goal productivity.
Match Preview
Mainz seems to have been startled by the prospect of qualifying for the Champions League. The team was among the leaders for a long time, but recent results have pushed them down to fifth place.
With just two points collected in the last four matches, their form is slipping, and the tight competition in this part of the table doesn't bode well for Mainz. I doubt they can secure a top-4 spot, but they will still fight for their place in European competitions.
Wolfsburg has been stuck in the middle of the table for a while now and is no longer considered a contender for European spots. The team hasn't lost all hope, but their results leave much to be desired.
The 'Wolves' have lost their last four matches, all by a narrow margin. On the other hand, they managed to score only in the recent game against Leipzig, and for now, they have to settle for 12th place.
Match Facts
- Mainz is unbeaten at home in ten consecutive matches.
- Wolfsburg hasn't tasted victory in their last five encounters.
- Mainz averages 1.4 goals per game at home, while Wolfsburg averages 0.8 goals per game away.
Probable Lineups
- Mainz: Zentner, Da Costa, Jenz, Kohr, Caci, Sano, Ferachnig, Norden, Lee, Weiper, Amiri.
- Wolfsburg: Grabara, Vavro, Odogu, Fischer, Gerhardt, Dardai, Arnold, Kaminski, Wind, Amura, Skov Olsen.
H2H
Wolfsburg has only lost to Mainz at their home ground once in the last 10 years.
Prediction
Wolfsburg has nothing to lose, while Mainz must win to stay in the fight for European competitions. Therefore, we can expect a high-scoring game, and I suggest betting on a total over 2.5 goals.
